Supporting Sudokus

[meikpiep]

Hey, because your app's layout is very similar to sudoku, any plan's on adding sudoku game in gauguin or make another app? I don't know much, but maybe it would be easier because only the functionality is different but all layout of app will be same.
I use libresudoku but its's input layout functionality is not good as yours (buttons are small and it don't use gestures). Thought i created a issue on their's repo today, maintainer's not very active on opened issues.

@nitinsooni Sorry for the late reply.

I admit the possibility of adding soduko, but it is unlikely to happen in the near future.

The causes are broad: Gauguin currently gets developed mainly by myself and I have a list of features which I want to add/optimize (e.g. new generation algorithm and a better difficulty rating, having an overall smooth app which good test coverage etc. pp.). I personally do not play sudoku, so to make this happen, there should be another dev to step in. I like sudokus, please don't get me wrong - but maintaining features no dev will use by itself is tricky.

I would strongly prefer to add a sudoku mode to Gauguin rather than maintaining a second app, as this leads to more overhead.

The sudoku feature will add a relevant complexity, so in my eyes, this would be a so called "scope creep" for now. May be, this will change in the future.

Yeah, and after seeing the response in this thread, it seems most people don't want this feature also.
Still, thanks for giving it your thought.
