    Create HyperText with JavaScript.

  • Hyperscript already has an established meaning in this space, as a pure JS-based syntax alternative to JSX.

    See https://github.com/hyperhype/hyperscript and all its descendants, like Mithril, HyperApp or Sinuous.

    Could you please think of another name ?

  • _hyperscript

    a small scripting language for the web

  • It seems to be this one:

    https://hyperscript.org/

    but no sure it's anything to do with the OP though

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • wordlebot

    A simple Wordle puzzle solver (by rgkimball)

  • Nice work! I spent some time playing with this today and used it to build a solver algorithm. It's a brute force search through the possible combinations that prioritizes words based on letter frequency and uses the hints provided to whittle down the search space.

    Though not enforced by the Hyperwordle clone, the script plays the game on "hard" mode by default where all letter hints must be included in subsequent guesses. Ironically, this constraint made the algorithm more efficient, easy mode tends to take longer and fail more frequently!

    Anyone have a better algo yet? https://github.com/rgkimball/wordlebot
