xwords
is a fast library that fills crossword puzzles. This repo also contains a lightweight CLI for invoking the library.
Caveat Emptor
This is foremost a hobbyist project for me to learn a bit about profiling and optimizing rust. I am more than happy to accept contributions or to consider feature requests, but please be aware that the future of this project is somewhat uncertain.
CLI
This command fills a grid that is stored in a local file using a default wordlist.

Behind the scenes, this snippet loads an indexed wordlist, and iteratively fills the input with valid words.
