For me, puzzles can be a quiet pause in an otherwise busy day. Today, feel free to relax with a "new trend" not featured before on GAPP, a Bossa Nova 🎶. You can choose to solve in the provided Waritai style, in a thick-bordered layout reminiscent of the game Sokoban, or in Original style, which provides a circle for each clue. And, if you’d like music while you solve, I’ve linked one of my favorites, "Moment of Rest" from Professor Layton and the Diabolical Box [https://youtu.be/xu4wQ6ws1y8]. (Apologies, I only know video game music 😅)

Rules: Place a positive integer into each empty cell. Each number must be equal to the sum of the differences between itself and each orthogonally adjacent number.

Interface Note: You can mark numbers between cells to indicate the difference between the cells. (I find these very useful while solving, and recommend marking all of them.)
