Let’s have some fun

convert easily readable text into inscrutable morse code!

Created with Claude using the following prompt. One shot, no additional updates or corrections. Prompt details below the app.

My prompt

let's make a simple web app. it will take text as input, then translate that text to morse code using beeps (vs lights, or written dots and dashes).

Claude’s response (in addition to the html file)

I'll create a web app that converts text to morse code audio beeps. Let me start by reading the frontend design skill to make sure we follow best practices.

Now I'll create a morse code beeper app with a distinctive aesthetic. I'm thinking of a retro-futuristic telegraph/radio operator aesthetic - something that evokes old communication technology but with modern polish.

I've created a morse code beeper app with a retro-futuristic telegraph aesthetic! Here's what it does:

Features:

  • Converts text to morse code in real-time

  • Plays the morse code as audio beeps (dots = short beeps, dashes = long beeps)

  • Visual signal indicator that pulses with each beep

  • Shows the morse code translation

  • Play and Stop controls

Design elements:

  • Retro telegraph/radio operator aesthetic with amber accent lighting

  • Orbitron display font paired with Courier Prime monospace

  • Glowing effects on the title and active signals

  • Dark, technical interface with subtle scan lines

  • Animated signal light that activates during transmission

The timing follows standard morse code conventions: dots are 80ms, dashes are 240ms, with appropriate gaps between symbols, letters, and words. Just type your message and hit "Play Morse" to hear it beep!
