Could you build this?
Partial Generating fully interlocking, valid, symmetrical crossword grids with high-quality clues on arbitrary topics on demand requires a non-trivial constraint satisfaction solver combined with LLM generation.
What it would actually take: The frontend is Swift/SwiftUI for iOS. The backend requires a constraint satisfaction problem (CSP) crossword compiler (like an automated grid-fill engine using backtracking and wordlists) coupled with an LLM prompt pipeline to generate thematic word-clue pairs that fit strict crossword intersection constraints without invalid characters or unfillable isolated letters.
