I wrote essentially the same game as "Wordle" and submitted it as my entry for a "hackathon" contest back in November 2020. Unfortunately, it was only available for the public to play online for 30 days (the trial cloud-hosting was only valid for 30 days).

You can read about my game, Jotto 2020, right here. I built the game's UI with EnyoJS -- one of the earliest JavaScript frameworks to make it easy to create a library of custom, reusable components. The letters with the traffic-light colors were rendered by one of the custom components that I wrote in EnyoJS.

I feel with you, In the 90s I registered the domain photomatchmaker.com, it was supposed to be a website with photos of faces and people could like eachother.
10 years later I sent an email to Mark, asking: Hey did you see my website back then?
Never got a reply...

Wow, that's very interesting! I presume that the "Mark" you sent an email to was none other than Mark Z of "Thefacebook".

Your domain name of "photomatchmaker.com" calls to mind the defunct dating service web site Matchmaker.com.
