Description
The UI is pretty basic but it fulfills the needs.
It looks and works like a RNG, so it must be a RNG!
Hopefully the UI is wacky enough for the submission category!

Background
I've already published other RNG apps to get known to new techniques and actually had a successful extended RNG.
It's just super easy to get some basic knowledge about a new language/stack by replicating something you already know.
How I built it
The RNG itself is a simple descriptive html page with inline javascript. This makes it perfectly fitted for the "static site" deployment through DO App Platform.
Though I didn't know about DO's App Platform before, the process from first commit to deployment is pretty straightforward and easy. It took me under 5 minutes to get DO up and running! Sweet :)
Additional Resources/Info
Although the result will never be best-of-class, such a simple project always encourages me to learn new things - in an easy way. Once you've digged deep enough into a new thematic, you're always free to "come back" and improve the initial try.
If you never start, you never level up!
