	<h1>Name Generator</h1>
	<p>
		This name generator uses context-free grammars and markov chains to create names faithful to the source material, and does it 
		very fast. The code is <a href="https://github.com/gissleh/namegen"> open source</a> and available as a Rust crate. It's 
		running as a webassembly module in the browser.
	</p>
	<p>
		The samples used to build the generator has been sourced from both canon and fan-created works. I will not share the sample
		material as I do not possess permissions for that. Feel free to download the processed generator data, however, which you 
		can find by tacking .json to any name, and <a href="/index.json">the index</a> if you want a list. The <code>data</code>
		field serializes into a <code>Name</code> struct from the rust crate linked above.		
	</p>
	<p>
		There are no analytics or cookies, and all generating happes in your browser.
