The problem
Most Enigma simulators are either historically dry or too simplified to actually teach how the rotors, rings and plugboard interact.
The approach
Implemented the real M3 rotor-stepping logic and a 10-pair plugboard, then wrapped it in a glitchy matrix-horror interface with built-in history on how the machine worked and how it was eventually broken.
The result
A simulator accurate enough to actually encode/decode like the real machine, wrapped in an interface people want to explore.
