So I’ve finished my anagram finder thing and it’s fast. http://anagrams.heroku.com/

It hardly has any design to the page as I’ve not had time to do that. It’s backed with MongoDB and searches documents of the form { word: “LOLCATZ”, lookup: “acllotz” } with an index on “lookup” so it’s fast.

Some issues that I had was the permute function that I wrote had a slight flaw that turned out making it hardly generate any permutations. This took me a while to find because when the search only provided a few results I figure it was just because I wasn’t using a large wordlist. Now the permute function is fixed and many more words are returned.

Any feedback or suggestions would be appreciated.
