Inspiration
It is for educational purpose that to teach students or others who are interested in cryptography the Morse Code. It is also a nostalgia that Morse Code is a historic method of communication that was widely used in the past.
What it does
Our simple web app contains two parts: The first part is a Morse Code converter. User can enter some English sentences in the "Input text" box, it would then be converted into Morse Code showing in the "Output Morse Code" box. The second part is a simple Morse Code practice game. User can play with a simple practice game to practice writing Morse Code for each of the 26 English alphabets and the ten digits. If the user enters the Morse Code correctly, the user is notified and will score 1 point.
How we built it
We built our web app using React, CSS, and JavaScript. We coded collaboratively in Visual Studio Code through Live Share.
Challenges we ran into
Our biggest challenges is that we need to learn React, since we all have limited experience in that.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
Our team is really proud of how much we were able to get done in such a short amount of time.
What we learned
We learned the fundamental concepts of React, such as the utilization of useState and useEffect.
What's next for Learn Morse Code
It is very fun to know the Morse Code. Next, we would like to add more challenge to the game component where the user will have to write out the words by giving the Morse Code. We also want to implement our app to mobile platform like Android and iOs.
