Creates the
VirtualKeyboardcomponent with distinct visual states for correct (green), misplaced (yellow), and absent (dark gray) letter keys. EachKeyButtonis wrapped inReact.memowith a custom comparison to prevent unnecessary re-renders when other keys change state.Why
The virtual keyboard is the primary input mechanism for Wordle gameplay. Without visual state indicators, players cannot track which letters have been guessed and their correctness. The component uses a
keyStatusesprop (Record<string, KeyStatus>) that the parent game component can derive from guess evaluation results.What was built
