talk on conference website
Crossword puzzles are a fun pastime enjoyed around the world. Last year at GUADEC, the GNOME Crosswords app was introduced with much fanfare. Part of this app is a crossword editor that gives you the tools to create your own crosswords. Over the past year, we’ve been trying to get a free-software crossword community off the ground.
This talk will go through some of the various types of crosswords, their history, and their differences. It will cover the steps of how and how to create puzzles using Crosswords. We will cover hints on how to build grids and hopefully inspire people to try their hand at creating more crosswords we can all enjoy.
