About

Morse code, a simple yet effective method of communication, has been used for centuries. In this project, you'll create a Morse code translator, a unique tool that converts text to Morse code and vice versa. This isn't just a coding exercise, it's a chance to bring a piece of historical communication into the digital age.

What you'll learn

Once you choose a project, we'll provide you with a study plan that includes all the necessary topics from your course to get it built. Here’s what awaits you:
In this stage, you'll focus on designing the user interface of your application. This includes creating the layout for input and output fields, buttons for conversion, and clear labels to guide the user.
You'll create the logic for Morse code translation. This involves setting up dictionaries for Morse-to-Text and Text-to-Morse conversion, and implementing the functionality for the conversion buttons. The result will be shown on the screen.
In this final stage, you'll enhance your app by adding a Morse code dictionary feature. This will provide users with a reference of Morse code symbols for each letter of the alphabet, enhancing usability and educational value of your app. You'll design a way to display this information and integrate it into the existing UI. Spans will be used to give emphasis to important sections of text.

I am a beginner, so it was a very useful project. I learnt how to use RecyclerView with gridlayout.
