I built a Wordle decoder that guesses your guesses

In plain words

This tool helps Wordle players by analyzing their guesses and predicting what word they're thinking of. It works by taking the guesses a player has made and using that information to narrow down possibilities. The decoder is designed for anyone playing Wordle who wants assistance figuring out solutions. It's available as code on GitHub for players interested in exploring how algorithmic word-solving works.

  Hi everyone, I really, really enjoy playing Wordle, but my limited vocabulary often leaves me stuck. So I ended up building a small helper to give myself a hand while playing. It's not meant to "cheat" at Wordle — the idea is just to help you practice more often and get better at guessing words. I kept it lightweight and interactive so it still feels like you’re actually playing and learning as you go. A few things I found interesting while building it: 1. The candidate list updates live as you type—no precomputed tables 2. The scoring model combines basic frequency weights and positional…

  Talanoa▲346

  Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

  I made a web game called Almost Pong▲1,135

  Hi HN! I made many small web games in the past with Unity or Phaser. But this time I wanted to make something completely on my own. So I coded a basic game framework in plain JavaScript, and used it to make Almost Pong. This was a really fun project that taught me a lot about JavaScript, and I plan to make more minimalist games with this framework. Interesting fact: Almost Pong doesn't load any assets, all sprites and sounds are generated with code. Happy to answer questions, and please let me know if you have any feedback on the game. Thanks!
