What’s the Wordle? Nothing is more zeitgeisty right now than Wordle, a once-a-day web-based five-letter-word-guessing puzzle-logic game. The app lets you copy your results in a consistent format for pasting into a tweet or whatever. It begins with a string of meta information, ‘Wordle X Y/Z’, where X is the edition number, Y is the attempts taken and Z is the maximum allowed guesses.
