A free Morse code trainer that teaches by ear instead of from a chart, and runs entirely in the browser. No account, no ads; your progress stays on your device, and it works offline.

The front page is the first lesson: tap the key once and you've sent E. Characters arrive in seven stages by code length, two on day one and all 26 letters and 10 digits by day seven. Each one is seen, then heard, then sent by you.

Inside: a straight key and iambic paddles (A and B), a daily wire that is the same for everyone, a 60-second test whose link brings the same prompts to whoever opens it, secret Morse messages carried in the URL, and a lamp mode for learning with the sound off.

I'm taking an amateur sailing course here in Turkey that needs an amateur radio certificate, so I went back to radio training and had to learn Morse. The method that worked for me became this app.
