The other day I wanted to make a wicked anagram for my name, since all the cool kids are doing it. But the internets gave me crappy “anagram generators” that just spewed out a bunch of gibberish that was impossible to navigate through or customize, so I wrote my own anagram builder.

Clicking the words uses up those letters and adjusts the list accordingly. Even a little 2 letter word can dramatically reduce the number of options you need to consider:
Furthermore, it becomes clear very quickly if you won’t be able to use that really awesome big word:
And if you DO use all your remaining letters, you get a prize.
