So I'm sure a lot of you have seen all of these fancy posts on your socials:
Wordle 229 3/6

and wanted to try the hit game, but you love Onshape too much to leave the site. No worries, because with the power of FeatureScript and configurations, it's possible to play Wordle in Onshape.Β
Introducing Worlde:Onshape EditionΒ https://cad.onshape.com/documents/432cac77d3d830ff93cfd91a/w/9d972999a8d896b190d72bb2/e/c0f7b4a87795cef0529c77f9
Jokes aside, I was inspired by Onshape's LinkedIn postΒ and thought to myself that it's definitely possible to make Wordle in Onshape, so I threw this together in about 2 hours. I'm keeping the document private and only sharing with Link Sharing so that it's not so easy to see the solution, but if anyone's curious about the code just let me know and I can send it your way. It was really fun to make, I'm glad I tried it out. The Wordle code is pretty simple (still blow away that the New York Times spent seven figures on 1900 lines of JS code). The tricky part was figuring out an elegant way of querying geometry and changing colors/displaying text.Β
A couple of ways I want to improve on this:
- Cleaner interface
- Validate real words/spelling
- Use the API to automatically change the word each day
- Clean up some code/document it a little better
