About Morse Code Generator
Morse code represents each letter, digit, and common punctuation mark as a unique combination of short signals (dots, ·) and long signals (dashes, —). A single space separates characters within a word, and a slash or triple space separates words. This tool implements the International Morse Code standard, covering A–Z, 0–9, and widely used punctuation. It is ideal for students, educators, scouts, amateur radio enthusiasts, and anyone curious about this historic communication method.
How to Use Morse Code Generator
- Select Text → Morse to encode plain text, or Morse → Text to decode Morse sequences.
- Type or paste your content in the input area. For decoding, separate letters with a space and words with a slash (
/). - The result appears automatically. Click Copy result to place it on your clipboard.
- Switch modes at any time to convert in the opposite direction.

Technical Details
The encoder maps each supported character to its International Morse Code equivalent and joins letters with a single space, words with a slash. Unsupported characters (emoji, accented letters outside the standard set) are silently skipped. The decoder reverses the process by splitting on slashes for words and spaces for characters. All logic executes in JavaScript within your browser — no network requests are made. For a related encoding tool, try our Text to Binary Converter or the classic Caesar Cipher.
