What is the origin of Wordle?

Initially developed by engineer Josh Wardle as a gift for his partner, Wordle rapidly transformed into an international phenomenon, with thousands participating daily. Different Wordle variations created by fans also surfaced, such as battle royale Squabble, music identification game Heardle, and versions like Dordle and Quordle, which require guessing multiple words simultaneously.

Wordle gained such immense popularity that it was acquired by the New York Times, and TikTok creators even livestream their gameplay.
