Command-line typing speed tests
This cluster consists of command-line applications for measuring and practicing typing speed and accuracy through timed tests, with some variations like using classic literature passages, multiple modes, and local leaderboards. The dated entries span from January 2020 to April 2026, totaling 7 dated entries, showing a sporadic pattern of releases with no clear trend. The activity leaders are typing_test, Typewriter, and typeape, all currently showing zero stars.
Entry timeline
ENTRY TIMELINE
Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.

Two labels per entry, never collapsed into one: how it was built, and who stands behind it. Counted over the 7 listed below. Unlabelled means nothing has decided yet — not that the answer is small.

Ranked by traction, highest first, and paged 20 at a time — this is a window on the cluster, never the whole of it. Ties are broken by a stable id so a product cannot appear on two pages or fall between them. Browse every cluster.
