#4Cute! Thanks for sharing!
I love the ZSA's tool for learning to type on their keyboards [0] - you might take inspiration from that. I love that they have both prose and programming modes, since you might want to improve your typing speed of non-alphanumerical characters as well.

#5That's great, but the question of the decade is still what finger to use on the spacebar.
P.S. Looks like it's also a working memory trainer, since you have to remember which letter chain appeared on the screen first. Still kind of cool.

Honestly, ZSA are bloody wonderful. I bought a Moonlander this year and the whole vibe is so cosy

#7Little tip if anyone is serious about learning to touch type: what worked for me was buying a keyboard with blank caps. Struggle for two weeks and boom! You know how to touch type.

#8This is really good, simple and effective! Though once it gets harder I feel overwhelmed when I can't keep up anymore. Weird because I know where keys are without looking, but when I know I'm doing a speed typing thing, I like panic and look down sometimes or make more mistakes than normal.
