About
Wordle is a web-based word game created by Josh Wardle in which players get six attempts to guess a five-letter word, with a new puzzle released daily. Wordle CLI is a command-line implementation of Wordle built with Charm's terminal-UI tooling, distributed as a standalone binary for Linux, macOS, and Windows, with dedicated Debian and Arch Linux packages. It offers three modes — the official daily word, a separate CLI-specific daily word, and unlimited random-word practice — plus a statistics screen for the tracked modes.
How it differs from the original
Unlike the original web game, Wordle CLI adds an unlimited random-word practice mode and its own separate CLI-only daily word; random mode does not track statistics the way the other modes do.
Getting started
Download the prebuilt binary from the releases page (or install via the Debian or Arch package repositories) and place it on your PATH. Run `wordle` to play today's official word, `wordle daily` for the CLI's own daily word, or `wordle random` for a random word; press Enter to submit a guess, Backspace to delete a letter, and use the arrow keys on the finish screen to view statistics.
