Make a puzzle ↗How to solve Wordle Today in six tries
Start with a word that tests several common letters. Use the first result to remove impossible choices, then keep confirmed green letters in their positions. Move yellow letters to a new position and avoid reusing grey letters unless a repeated letter could explain the clue.
As the board fills, choose guesses for information instead of guessing the first word that comes to mind. A word that tests two or three new letters can be more useful than one that only repeats a likely answer.

An independent Wordle-style puzzle
Wordle Today is an independent browser word game. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by The New York Times. The puzzle on this site may differ from the official daily game, so check the NYT Wordle guide if you want to understand the difference.
For definitions and spelling, consult a trusted dictionary such as Merriam-Webster. A dictionary can help you learn unfamiliar words after your round without giving away the answer before you play.
