alt Hacker NewsBuilding a modern typing application.
I believe typing is probably one of the most important skills in 21st century for knowledge workers and yet one of the most neglected. Hoping to change that.
Anyone can learn to type fast, without having to think about or look down at the keyboard. We are building the best tool to help people get there quickly

Typing applications has been an extremely crowded space since all the way back in the Mavis Beacon days - good luck!
Small bit of feedback that might help it stand out more from the crowd and appeal to HN users: Add in training for Colemak, Dvorak, and maybe regional variants like AZERTY.
I feel the challenge of typing applications is boredom. It's hard to keep using them. The only ones I kind of keep going back to are games. There serveral modern adventure games and a real time strategy game (I don't remember their names) and then there's Typing of the Dead.
Very slick and smooth. The insights pages need a link to go back to the main page. Bookmarking.
