Static Wordle

Something that could be pretty cool to do with this is generate a `og:image` based on the state in the URL. This way, the actual game would render in iMessage & all rather than having to screenshot it.

Here is the link to the actual instance of static wordle (No JavaScript required):<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;stevekrouse-staticwordle.web.val.run&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;stevekrouse-staticwordle.web.val.run&#x2F;</a>

This is pretty fun. Kinda wonder if it has to be so slow to update given that everything is local. Or does it have to do a round trip to the server on every click?<p>Bug report: this gives a yellow square for a letter that should be gray, when that letter occurs elsewhere in the word and the guess already has it in the right place. So e.g. if the word is ABCDE and you guess ABCDD it gives green for the first D and yellow for the second D (which should be gray).

Latency is really bad. Interesting idea but it’s not really usable.

love this. next up, let&#x27;s see if you can achieve Static Minecraft!

Love this. Would it be possible to read in a daily-changing starting word state that then gets stored via URL as preservation? That&#x27;d bring it a little nearer to classic wordle.

In one of the guesses, I wish to reuse a grey letter to make a valid word, but it won&#x27;t let me.<p>Edit: It allows me to guess invalid words.
