    Hey, I also made one of these: https://touchtype.page

    A bit annoyed I picked Moby Dick to try it out, that thing is looong.

    Might be a good idea to try to explain how your project is different from other more well-known ones that let you practice typing using public domain literature. TypeLit is the one that comes immediately to mind.

    This is fun, thanks for the note on "hard mode" (maybe call it Settings instead of Appearance).

    It was extremely annoying to have it auto skip punctuation. Maybe you should just ignore the keypresses for punctuation marks instead of showing a red indicator for the next character.

    Why would one do that? what are the benefits instead of just reading?

      I have troubles doing nothing besides reading so typing might help me ease into the story I guess. Will try this out!

      I don’t know about typing but writing things by hand definitely commits them to memory in a much stronger way than just saying them out loud.

      I imagine that typing isn’t as effective but is still way more effective than just reading because you really have to consider every single word.
