https://www.theverge.com/2022/2/1/22912711/wordle-web-save-download-webpage-local-personalWordle is the pandemic game we didnt know we needed, so theres understandably some fear that its brand-new owner, The New York Times, might eventually ruin it somehow.
But as technologist Aaron Rieke brilliantly explains in a Twitter thread, theres little chance of that because Wordle is a webpage, and webpages can be saved. (This particular webpage runs on client-side code, which helps considerably.) You could download a complete copy of the game right now that contains all the answers, cycles to the proper new puzzle each day, and still comes with the same Share button so you can share those all-important little squares with fellow players.

(25,247 posts)I'm not sure I understand how to save this?
Open the Wordle site and right click to do what (save or copy)? Not sure?
Then do you go to your desktop and paste it? I tried that and could not figure out how to do that paste.
Could some one take me through the procedure?

(5,530 posts)and saved it in my favorites. Then played my FIRST game ever and got it on the 4th line! WOW! My question: is that the correct website? I am a little confused. The one I played said next game will come on in a little over 3 minutes. Is that the official wordle I am on? HELP and THANKS
