Who Has the Skills?!

So, I learned recently that Donjon (bless that site for making random dungeon generation a breeze) basically just automated all of the encounter tables. The problem is, they only have the Monster Manual, MtoF, and Volo's in their database, yet they have some magic items from other books...

So, I guess my question is: Is there anyone here willing to try and make a dungeon/magic item/encounter generator in a similar manner to Donjon, but incorporating like... everything that we currently have?

Donjon's code is even open source as far as I can tell, so there's... really no reason someone couldn't do it. (I would if I had any coding skill).

...Yeah, that's all I got.

If the source code is open source, then it probably wouldn't be too hard for you to learn as I think you would just be adding options, or making a new program with new options but otherwise the same structure.

So what you would need to do is identify the structure of declaring an option to randomly generate, and add new options or change the options that can be output.

I.e. if the logic should be something like

generate a random number 1-x
if (number value)
then (output y)
else if (number value)
then (output z)

and you just add options or change the existing option.

I have most of one. The issue is generating the data in machine readable fashion, not the actual coding. Encounter generation is the piece my tool doesn't do, mostly because I haven't figured out how I want to slice the issue (since CR isn't useful to me for this due to my particular style).

Just updating donjon would be amazing, because i use it a ton too.
