Tengwar is a type of Elvish scripting. My transcriber simply converts English characters to Tengwar, it will not translate English to Tengwar. This tool is useful for a few special cases, such as writing your name in Tengwar.

This will start webpack-dev-server which will serve the production ready files from the ./dist directory. The webpack-dev-server will also watch the files for changes, and automatically build the bundle if anything changes.

How I interpret 'r' :
as in 'car' - means 'r' is preceded by a vowel
as in 'red' - means everything else
The 'r' variation could also be a trilled 'r' or a non trilled 'r' (according to the spoken Elvish). More research is needed.
How I identify silent 'e' : Most cases of a silent 'e' occur at the end of a word. This is currently how my algorithm works.
Known Issues :
- Handling 'y' consonant case
- Alternate forms of 'z' and 's'
- Two cases for 'r'
- Missing 'x' character
- Missing 'h' character
- Missing 'nd' character
