Wordle Solver

This is a Java program that automates solving the New York Times Wordle puzzle using Selenium. Currently, the program only supports Safari browser, but support for more browsers will be added in future updates.

Prerequisites

• Java 8 or above if you're compiling from source, else Java 17 or above.
• Safari browser
  • Ensure that the Enable Remote Automation option is enabled in Safari's Develop menu.
    • To do this, go to Preferences > Advanced > Show Develop menu in menu bar
    • Then, go to Develop > Allow Remote Automation

Usage

• Clone the repository

• From the project root, run mvn clean install spring-boot:repackage to build the jar file.

• If the safari webdriver is not enabled, run safaridriver --enable to enable it.

• Run java -jar target/0.0.2-SNAPSHOT.jar to start the program.
