`yarn generate`

This command will run the generate.js program. It scans the ./wordlists directory for wordlist files, prompts for a selection, and will generate a serialized trie in json format, and save it to the ./dictionaries/ folder.

If you would like to create a dictionary of your own you can add a new word list here.

Current Word Lists

NASPA Word List / twl06 (USA & Canada) See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NASPA_Word_List.
Collins Scrabble Words / sowpods (Basically everywhere else) See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collins_Scrabble_Words

If you want to use a different dictionary replace the words file with your own. Currently the NASPA word list is used by default.

Usage no npm install needed!
