TIL that Wordle was created by a guy named Josh Wardle (heh) & the code was open source. (Previously, he was also the guy who created the infamous Reddit /place!) Anyway, he made Wordle for friends & fam, they shared it and it went viral, he then sold to NYT for 6 figs despite the code being OS— you love to see it!
