Wordle is a game where you guess words in hopes of determining the final solution. After guessing a word, hints are given based on the letters positions in your guess compared to the actual solution. These hints should be used to determine yor next guess.

Hints

The hints are color coded:

🟢 letter is in solution and in correct position
🟡 letter is in solution, but in wrong position
🔴 letter is not in solution
