I remember seeing this! It was cool, and I will remember to play it more.

Re creating puzzles, does this mean you have to manually do them one per day? Is there a way to automate them ahead of time (as in have an app generate a bunch of puzzles you can pick from or tweak)?

This is something I’ve been grappling with.

I’ve automated parts of the process. Once I have the words and clues I can autogenerate crosswords and pick the best one.

I’m hesitant to automate the creation of the theme, words, and clues though. I worry that the quality would go down but there may be some opportunities to speed up brainstorming there. I’ve been noodling on this.
