Acknowledgements

This is a fork of the kanjirecog project at https://github.com/quen/kanjirecog with a new Gradle-based build system and some code modifications to make it compatible with recent Android versions.

It uses a database derived from the SVG kanji stroke order images produced by the KanjiVG project and released under Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 3.0 license. The original version of this database from the KanjiVG project is in the data folder, named kanjivg-<date>.xml.
