    Generator UI/Service Updates

    The generator service has been switched to the new formatting syntax of CL vNext. This mostly affects links and images: Instead of {"https://example.com"|Site} {"https://example.com/image.png"|Caption|img} Use [Site](https://example.com) ![Alt Text](https://example.com/image.png "Caption")

    Nested generators

    Is it possible to create a nested generator? Where the value for one generator can the result of another generator? I'm thinking along the lines of Xanathar's Guide to Everything, in the "This is your life" section. They do things like "roll for the status of this sibling", and one option is...
