DO backed static random number generator

What I built

I built an Random Number Generator for the purpose of getting known to DO App Platform.

Random Roulette

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!
