Play Wordle Endlessly with No Limit!

Gem Version

Wordle word game desktop GUI app written test-first using Glimmer DSL for SWT (JRuby Desktop Development GUI Framework) as inspiration by Kevin Newton's blog post.

(Since the desktop version can leverage a real keyboard, there is no need to display the alphabets following the Qwerty layout, so they are displayed alphabetically to enable a more user-friendly experience, but the Qwerty layout is available as an option if desired.)
