Rotorworks
See inside a rotor cipher machine, then break a message.
How it's built
- Exact Enigma I checked against an independently written second machine
- Circuit drawn from the engine's own trace: amber in, teal dashed back
- Turing-Welchman bombe from scratch on a Web Worker pool
- Stop checker recovers rings and plugboard with a trigram model
- Daily intercept, challenge links and share links, all static
An Enigma I drawn as its own working circuit: press a key and watch the current run through the plugboard, three rotors and the reflector. Then switch sides: slide a guessed word along an intercepted message, build its menu and run a bombe written from scratch on a pool of Web Workers. Six authored intercepts, a daily intercept, challenge links and machine share links.
