About Danesh

Danesh is a tool to help people work more easily with procedural generators. With just a few lines of code you can connect your generator to Danesh and get a better understanding of what it can do, what it can't do, and what it might do with a few tweaks.

Danesh is designed to help people learning procedural generation for the first time, as well as experts who want to get the most out of the code they write. The tool will grow and develop based on your feedback, and our own cutting-edge research into generative analysis.
