Plus, like I said elsewhere, even the "Inspired by" section itself is copied from the original site. The entire page is copied verbatim, with only the text switched out for his cricket theme.

I'm sorry to the OP, but you just can't plagiarise someone else's work like this and then write a fake diary about how you built it yourself (https://pankajtanwar.substack.com/p/i-built-a-fake-vs-code-t...).

By way of contrast, the 'Inspired by' on the original acknowledges its debt to Geektyper (https://geektyper.com/word/), an MS Word clone so different that no one would guess at the inspiration. That is an appropriate level of inspiration for such a small acknowledgement hidden right at the bottom.
