Normal sudoku rules apply, but the grid is filled with digits 0-8. In addition, the puzzle is simultaneously a slitherlink puzzle: A single loop travels along the edges of the cells, without branching or crossing itself. Digits 0-3 tell how many of that cell's four edges are part of the loop. Huge thanks to Dandelo for the updated Penpa link.
updated link to penpaAnd yeah, I should probably mention that this is my first sudoku, so any and all feedback is appreciated.

git.io links don't work any more. New Penpa+ link, with answer check: https://tinyurl.com/ykd6h7s7

Thanks very much guys for the feedback, I kinda rushed getting my first puzzle up after finishing with it. (I did at least have it tested on CTC discord :P)

Changed puzzle to use digits 0-8, otherwise unchanged.

But I agree with henrypijames, maybe you should replace the 9s by 0s in the picture.

And here a version with 0 instead of 9 (and shading activated in penpa lite, which allows to highlight the slitherlink clues):

Nice puzzle, good idea to combine the types.
Here's a link to the actual version of penpa with answer check of both, numbers and edges (must be green): https://git.io/JBKDW

But Penpa has 0 - no need to substitute it with 9.

I very much like this hybrid, it was great fun, thank you!
P.S.: at the moment the solution code only checks the correctness of the Sudoku, you could also ask for part of the Slitherlink (e.g. number of horizontal lines in columnX). Just an idea :)
