I made a thing

This one time, at band camp.. No, not really at band camp, but recently I woke up and had a dumb idea of having a website dedicated to Finnish superlatives. So I made one.

The basics

The process was pretty straightforward. I mined Finnish Wikipedia's API for the listed superlatives, made a quick-and-dirty algorithm for figuring out the suffix-hell and added an extra row in the db-table for some exceptions to the general rules. After that I limited the daily randomized adjectives to 3 and that's about it.

I spent about 5 minutes making the logo and picking colours in Canva and otherwise kept the design simple, since I'm more of a "let's just make a thing that works" than "I want everything to be pretty" kinda guy.
