DISCLAIMER

For whatever reason, my laptop refused to screen record any widgets that my code had opened and I hadn't realized this until after I finished creating the video. After realizing this, I tried everything that I can, but I still remain unable to screen record the tkinter widget without paying for screen recording services. As such, I have decided to stick with the original video and I have attached a video link of what the tkinter widget for the game looks like. In order to access the video, simply copy and paste this link into your browser and hit play. https://vimeo.com/1073420145?share=copy

Inspiration

This project was inspired by wordle.

What it does

This project generates a game of wordle uses the selected word length to select a random word from either a list of commonly used words or all the words of that particular word length.

How we built it

I simply started coding in python on my laptop to make this game and its functionality a reality. Whenever I got stuck on an issue, I checked StackOverflow to see if there were any solutions to my problem that people had already figured out.

Challenges we ran into

I faced challenges in navigating new libraries such as re and keyboard, but after consulting the documentation, I was able to overcome these challenges.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

When it comes to this project I am most proud of having keyboard functionality with each button press being recognized, being able to generate lists of words, creating a functional game of wordle that functions just like the real game, and getting everything to actually work with such a short deadline. Along with this, I am also proud of the fact that I was able to create such a polished and functional project for my first hackathon

What we learned

I learned how to use several new libraries, such as re, keyboard, and easyGUI.

What's next for Infinite word length wordle

I believe the next step would be to expand the game from just Wordle to all of the the famous New York Times games.
