    Hello! I recently wanted to learn a bit about computer vision. Initially, I wanted to build something which could solve a jigsaw puzzle, but figured I should start with something (much) simpler, so I've built this instead. This is a visual Sudoku solver which runs in the browser. It works by using OpenCV to identify and process the Sudoku grid, passing this to a simple ML model to identify the digits, and then solving the puzzle with a backtracking algorithm. The ML model was trained on the TMNIST data set using a model built with Keras, also a completely new area to me. It's far from…

    Hello HN, I've created a new Sudoku app for iOS and Android that prioritizes simplicity and privacy. It's free to download and use, and I'd be grateful for any feedback or suggestions. Features: > 4 difficulty levels, accessible at any time > No personal data collection of any kind > Clean, minimalistic design that focuses on the game > Takes up significantly less space than other popular apps (by a factor of about 10x) > Minimal use of advertisements I was frustrated by how many of the popular Sudoku apps feel excessively over-engineered, consume a lot of storage space and some that even…

When it comes to classic Sudoku, the solver doesn't support anything more complicated than X-Wing, but it understands the…
