TensorFlow Playground makes overfitting and model capacity visible as you tweak layers live

A recommendation of TensorFlow Playground: change the dataset, layers, neurons, activation, learning rate and regularization, then watch the decision boundary evolve as the network trains — making underfitting, overfitting and model capacity visible.
