Word Scramble

Welcome to Word Scramble, a simple yet fun game where you test your word-guessing skills! The game randomly selects a word, scrambles its letters, and challenges you to guess the correct word within three attempts.

Features

• Play directly in the command-line interface (CLI).
• Option to run a web server to play via a web browser.
• Configure the web server port using command-line arguments.
