Swedish-Style Crossword Generator

Swedish-style crosswords are quite different from English (and many other languages) crosswords in that they are much more dense, with almost every square being taken up by a letter, and nearly every letter being shared between multiple words. This makes designing a Swedish style crossword massively more difficult. This generator aims to help in that process.

Instructions

To be added, as this codebase reaches some amount of maturity... But for now:

Wordlists are stored in text files ending in .words. Each line is one word. Optionally, you can include the hints as well, if separated by a : character.

Example file:

horse
shoe:on your foot
roof:on the house
sheep
cat
