FAQ

How can I change the length of a guess?

The default configuration is for solutions and guesses of length five, but it is flexible enough to handle other lengths, even variable lengths each day.

To configure for a different constant length:

To configure for variable lengths:

Note that guesses are validated against both the length of the solution, and presence in VALID_GUESSES.

How can I create a version in another language?

How can I add usage tracking?

This repository includes support for Google Analytics or Plausible Analytics, but, by default, this is disabled.

To enable Google Analytics:

  • Create a Google Analytics 4 property and obtain the measurement ID (of the format G-XXXXXXXXXX)
  • In .env, add REACT_APP_GOOGLE_MEASUREMENT_ID=G-XXXXXXXXXX

Keep in mind that your region might have legislation about obtaining a user's consent before enabling trackers. This is up to downstream repos to implement.

To enable Plausible Analytics:

  • Create a new website with Plausible Analytics with a given domain, e.g. example.app
  • In .env, add REACT_APP_PLAUSIBLE_DOMAIN=example.app

Why does sharing of results not work?

For mobile and wearable devices and smart TVs, sharing of results is initially attempted using the Web Share API. For other devices or when sharing to the Web Share API fails, the results are written to the clipboard. Both these methods will succeed only in a secure context, which require you to implement the HTTPS protocol when hosting this repo on a public domain.
