TypingMeter

TypingMeter is a one-minute typing speed test that helps you track your words-per-minute (WPM), accuracy, and percentile right in the browser. Try it online at the TypingMeter website.

Features

• 1-minute typing drills. Start a timed test with a curated stream of random words, available in both English and Bahasa Indonesia vocabularies. The UI logic lives in core/presentation/index.js, while the word pools are defined in core/data/static/word.js.
• Real-time feedback. Words are highlighted as active, correct, or incorrect as you type, so you immediately see mistakes. This highlighting flow is handled in core/presentation/index.js.
• Detailed results. Each run calculates WPM, accuracy, percentile ranking, and per-word/per-keystroke statistics, computed by core/presentation/util/typing_test.js.
• Persistent history. Your last five results are saved to the browser's local storage and can be cleared from the UI when you want a fresh start, powered by core/presentation/index.js, core/data/web_storage/web_storage_dao.js, and core/domain/model/test_result.js.

Getting started locally

This project is a static site that uses ES modules, so it needs to be served from a local web server.

1. Clone the repository.

   git clone https://github.com/deddyromnan/typingmeter.git
   cd typingmeter
   

2. Start a static server. Use any HTTP server you prefer, for example:

   # Option A: Python 3
   python3 -m http.server 8000
   
   # Option B: npx serve (requires Node.js)
   npx serve .
   

3. Open the app. Visit http://localhost:8000 (or the port you chose) in your browser.

How to use the typing test

1. Choose a language from the dropdown.
2. Start typing in the input box—the timer begins on your first keystroke.
3. Press the space bar to submit each word. The app moves the highlight to the next word automatically.
4. When the timer hits zero, review your results or restart the test to try again.

These interactions mirror the behaviour defined in core/presentation/index.js.

Customize the experience

• Change the word pools. Add or edit word lists in core/data/static/word.js to adjust the prompts or include new languages.
• Alter the test duration. Modify the limit value in core/presentation/util/timer.js to change how long each test runs.
• Store more history. Update the CAPACITY constant in core/domain/model/test_result.js if you want to keep more than five past results.

Built with

• Bootstrap 5 for layout and styles.
• Bootstrap Icons for UI icons.
• jQuery and Moment.js for DOM interactions and time formatting.
