Border Count Pentominous
(Published on 13. March 2023, 00:08 by Gliperal)
Consider this a teaser for some of the logic coming up in my next puzzle...
Normal Pentominous rules apply: Divide the grid into pentominoes (orthogonally-connected regions of 5 cells), such that no two pentominoes of the same shape (including rotations and reflections) touch orthogonally.
Clues outside the grid indicate the number of borders between pentominoes present in that row or column.
Example:
Solution code: Row 7: the corresponding letter of the pentomino in each cell

Wow! Very nice. I spent more time staring at the grid than actually solving. Once you find the right way to think about this puzzle, it resolves quite smoothly!
