Update answers, all # timestamps, fix for first continue

* The list of answers was no longer up to date.
* If the user first downloaded the extension but was behind in the days' Wordles, it took them to the current Wordle.
* All timestamps are now saved as numbers instead of date strings in local storage.
* New keys introduced into local storage for the app now have a prefix of wordle-catchup-nyt to avoid potential future conflicts.

v0.9.1 Pre-release
Pre-release

Before this patch, if you had never played Wordle, you would get a heading of Wordle Catch-up 0 but would be playing the current day's Wordle. If you tried to go to select some other day to play before the following day, you would be unable to use the keyboard since the game status would not change to IN_PROGRESS.

There were also some minor implementation changes which adjusted timestamps saved in localStorage so that the number of milliseconds were recorded instead of Date string.

Finally, the README was updated to include usage/installation instructions.

Wordle Catchup

A Chrome browser extension to play all missed days' Wordle games without losing your streak

Installation

  1. Type in chrome://extensions/ into the address bar of a tab in the Chrome browser and click Enter. You should see a list of extensions.
  2. Toggle the Developer mode slider in the top right corner.
  3. Download the extension file here: wordle-extension.crx
  4. When it's finished downloading, drag and drop the file at the bottom of the browser window into the tab you opened with the list of extensions. You should see a puzzle piece icon with a Drop to install before you drop it.
  5. Click Add extension.

Usage

When it's enabled, it'll automatically allow you to try your missed days' Wordles. If you missed more than one day, after completing that day's Wordle, refresh the page to get the next. To choose a day's Wordle to try, click on the puzzle piece with your extensions, select Wordle Catch-up icon, change the number in the text box, and then click the Go to Wordle Number button.
