The Signs Are There

Easy arrow sudoku. Beginner-friendly.
I saw this video of Rangsk solving "Bullseye" by LogicWiz and got inspired by the concept of cascading arrows, which I haven't seen often.
Rules:
Normal Sudoku rules apply. Place the digits 1-9 in each row, column and marked 3x3 region without repetition.
Arrow: Digits on an arrow must sum to the digit placed in that arrow's circle. Digits may repeat on an arrow if allowed by other rules.
Solution code: Row 8

I made it harder than it needed to because I pencil marked 134 equals 7 in one of the arrow lines instead of 124.. and it took longer for me to figure out that I failed math

@JohanW @JVA It should be fixed now, thanks to Fuxia's comment.

Made the arrow bulbs transparent.

You have to make the circles transparent in SudokuMaker, or whatever setting tool you're using.

@JohanW Thanks for the report. Sorry, I don't know how to fix that. Another person reported that they did not have that issue, so this might be related to device/browser/settings.
To help solve the puzzle:
All diagonal arrows point towards the top left corner, and they only overlap at the bulb/tip.

The cascading arrows don't render correctly in Sudokupad ( for me ). The arrow circles cover the arrow tips.
Windows 10, Firefox 156, Sudokupad 0.612.
