Wordl – Terminal Wordle with a web like GUI

Hi, I have created a terminal app for wordle that has web like experience. In particular, it has keyboard hints and guess reveal animations. The idea is to able to play wordle in the terminal offline (and continuously if needed). This is also kind of a Rust learning project for me, and my first public rust project. The terminal game is built with ratatui framework, which is great. I find it interesting that you can model a tui with `The Elm Architecture - TEA` principles for the terminal. Feedbacks are welcome, particularly if you are a wordle person. Have a nice day!

In plain words

Wordl is a terminal-based Wordle game that provides a web-like experience with keyboard hints and guess reveal animations. Built in Rust using the ratatui framework, it allows players to enjoy Wordle offline and play continuously without interruption. The application features visual feedback similar to the web version while running entirely in the terminal, making it accessible for those who prefer command-line tools.

    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…
