Download

You can download the latest binary from the GitHub releases page. Placing the binary somewhere in your PATH will make it available system-wide.

For Debian users

If you have Debian or a Debian-based system, you can use our Debian package repository to install and update Wordle CLI globally.

Run the following commands in succession:

echo "deb https://deb.nimblebun.works/debian stable main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/nimblebun.list
sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 033D0D4895F432D1
sudo apt update
sudo apt install wordle-cli

For Arch Linux users

If you have Arch Linux or an Arch-based system (e.g. Manjaro), you can install Wordle CLI globally through AUR.

Example using yay:

yay -S wordle-cli-bin

Usage

./wordle          # play today's official word
./wordle daily    # play today's Wordle CLI word
./wordle random   # play a random word

In-game you can press CtrlC to quit anytime. You can press Enter to validate your current word (note: invalid words will not be validated). Pressing Backspace will remove the last letter.

Once you're on the finish screen you can use the key to view your statistics for the chosen Wordle type. You can then use the key to return to the game overview. Note: random mode does not have statistics.

In random mode, you can press CtrlN on the finish screen to play a new random word.
