Wordle

A Wordle clone that grew into a full app. It started as the classic game, one five-letter word a day and six tries, with everything stored in the browser. I kept adding to it until it had accounts, stats, and a leaderboard.

What's in it:

• Daily Wordle with the usual rules
• Google sign-in so your profile follows you across devices
• Stats over time: games played, streaks, win rate, guess distribution
• Global leaderboards across several of those metrics
• Achievements with unlockable badges
• A live leaderboard backed by Firestore real-time updates
• Dark and light mode, remembered per user
• Installable as a PWA on mobile and desktop

It's a React 18 app with SCSS, deployed as a static site on GitHub Pages, with Firebase for auth and Firestore for data. Word validation and leaderboard aggregation run in Cloud Functions so the client isn't trusted with either. A lot of the later features were built with Cursor, which I wrote about in I finally tried vibe coding.
