What is the origin of Wordle?

Initially developed by engineer Josh Wardle as a present for his significant other, Wordle quickly grew to become a global sensation, engaging thousands of users worldwide daily. Fan-made alternative versions of Wordle also emerged, such as the battle royale format Squabble, the music guessing game Heardle, and variants like Dordle and Quordle that require you to guess multiple words simultaneously.

Wordle’s popularity surged to the point that it was acquired by the New York Times, and TikTok users even stream their gameplay live.
