Too Long; Didn't Read

Peter Norvig wrote a python essay to solve every Sudoku puzzle 10 years ago. He created a react app that uses his solver ideas and adds some learning layers to the UI. The idea was to create a sense of flow in the UI, where users can easily understand how to use it. The learning column was useless because in the search of a solution, it created temp steps that were not valid. So, I decided to implement other solving strategies that provided the detailed solutions. And as a last resort, the app will apply this strategies : Naked Pairs/Triples Pointing Pairs and Backtracking Search.
