TLDR 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.
