Solve a Rubik’s Cube in Text Format

This is mostly a cheat sheet for myself, but if it helps you out too then great!

White cross

Easy, but Make sure green, blue, red, and orange middles line up.

White corners

Should be easy to do with some RDR’D’ action.

Colored edges

Drop top edge down and right (or left)

U R Ui Ri Ui Fi U Fi

Ui Li U L U F Ui Fi

Top yellow cross

with top orientation

XYX    XXX

YYX OR YYY

XXX    XXX

F R U R' U' F'

Top yellow edges (middles)

Rotate top 3 edges: Front, left, and back.

R U R' U R U U R’ U

Top yellow corners

Rotate top 3 corners (FL, BL, BR?)

U R U’ L’ U R’ U’ L

Final corner (FR)

with top orientation:

?Y?

YYY

YYX

R ' D' R D

once the corner you are working on (FR) is correct, do a U turn until you have this orientation:

?Y?

YYY

YYX

Now repeat R'D'RD
