world — keeping the simplicity and challenge intact, but enhancing it with sleek design, interactivity,
and thoughtful
accessibility. It’s a respectful step forward: bringing the puzzle from print to pixel with care and

or a senior keeping your mind active, Sudoku offers something valuable to everyone.
Codoku builds on that inclusivity, offering interface that
welcomes players of all ages and abilities to enjoy the timeless challenge in a modern format.
Where Code Meets Puzzle
The name Codoku is a playful twist on "Code" and "Sudoku", inspired by the intersection
of programming logic and puzzle-solving. The game is built using HTML, CSS, JavaScript, Bootstrap, and
JQuery with an emphasis on accessibility, responsiveness, and user-friendly design.
At its core, Sudoku is a game of logic making it the perfect canvas for showcasing how code can simulate
reasoning and decision-making. Codoku takes advantage of this by using modular
functions and interactive JavaScript to mirror the problem-solving nature of the puzzle itself. Using
DOM manipulation, event-driven architecture, and API logic, Codoku
showcases how traditional puzzles can evolve into interactive learning opportunities for both players
and developers alike.
Features such as event triggers for real-time feedback, differentiated puzzle modes to suit various
skill levels, and intelligent hint controls that guide without giving away the game all contribute to a
more dynamic and personalized user experience. These interactive elements not only make
Codoku more engaging but also demonstrate the power of thoughtful front-end
development.
A Puzzle With Purpose
This project is also about more than just code. It’s a tribute to cognitive health and mental agility —
two things that matter deeply in the fight against dementia. Sudoku puzzles are known to support memory,
concentration, and logical thinking, making them a valuable activity for keeping the brain engaged and
active at any age.That’s why we’ve chosen to spotlight the work of
Alzheimer’s
Society, a UK charity supporting people affected by dementia.
