Deep-Link Steno Lesson Units: Jump to Chord Basics or Later Units
Open `/labs/steno/lessons?unit=u1-chord-basics` (or u2/u3) to share or bookmark a specific rung on the six-unit ladder without scrolling the full curriculum.

Supported unit ids
Chord-focused deep links include `u1-chord-basics`, `u2-chord-core`, and `u3-chord-expanding`. Timed chord copy on practice points to these three when it mentions Units 1–3.
Invalid or missing `unit` params fall back to the ladder home—no silent wrong unit.
Compare Steno WPM to prior steno sessions, not to QWERTY one-minute tests on the same day.
Pair timed Steno WPM runs with lesson units so speed gains trace back to outlines you actually know.

Share with students or study groups
Coaches can link directly to the unit a class is on. Learners still need browser progress unlocked by passing prior units unless they are revisiting an open unit.
Combine deep links with practice timed drills once a unit passes—lessons teach, practice measures.
Use stroke lookup after lessons, not during them—recall builds faster when you resist peeking at outlines.
