What is the origin of Wordle?

Invented by engineer Josh Wardle as a surprise for his partner, Wordle swiftly turned into a global phenomenon, attracting thousands of daily players.

Wordle gained such fame that it was acquired by the New York Times, with TikTok creators even broadcasting themselves as they play.
