This website serves as a way to convert and learn braille. The website uses six dots (two columns, three rows) to represent the bumps found on brialle. To represent a raised state, the dot turns a dark colour, otherwise the bump is not raised and remains a light colour. The website features to ability to convert braille to and from English alphabet characters. Additionally, you can test yourself and try to beat your own scores!
