Hat — classical Arabic calligraphy Five historical styles taught the traditional way: Naskh, Thuluth, Diwani, Ruq'ah and Kufi, with right-to-left guides and reed-pen (qalam) simulation that reproduces the angled nib of a real calligrapher. Hat Studio Meşk the way calligraphers learn it: 896 Arabic compositions, from single words and joined words to full lines, stacked compositions, panels, the tughra and mirrored writing, each written stroke by stroke with a reed pen. Eight more pen hands (Foundational, Uncial, Cyrillic and Greek broad pen, Hebrew Ashuri, Hangul Panbonche, Chinese Kaishu, Japanese Kaisho) and a drawing shelf of 84 exercises in line, ellipse, form, perspective, value, contour and construction. Real stroke scoring Not tracing theatre. Every stroke is compared with the master stroke for direction, order, shape and placement, then scored. Hints show exactly where your stroke went off. Animated stroke guides Watch each character written stroke by stroke, replay at your own speed, then write it yourself over a dotted outline, on lines, or on a blank page. Courses, lessons and exams Every script has a structured course: single letters, lowercase and uppercase, connecting letters, words, then an exam that scores you and awards stars. Kids Zone Playful, age-appropriate letter tracing for children — shapes, letters, words, badges and streaks, with a progress map they want to finish. Your own practice material Add your own words, your own texts and blank practice papers. Meshk builds lessons from whatever you want to write — a name, a poem, a vocabulary list. Import your own fonts Bring any writing style in as SVG and Meshk turns it into a guided, scored course. THE PEN RACK 81 pens, open in every lesson: Apple's eight inks and 73 reeds, nibs, brushes, leads and charcoal on ten shelves. Each has its own cut, angle and ink load, so a Thuluth reed behaves like a Thuluth reed. On iPad the rail sits on whichever side you hold the tablet.
