Monkey-type is a minimalistic typing test, featuring many test modes, an account system to save your
typing speed history and user configurable features like themes, a smooth caret and more.
word set
By default, the website uses the most common 200 words in the english language to generate its tests.
You can change to an expanded set (1000 most common words) in the options, or change the language entirely.
keybinds
You can use tab and enter (or just tab if you have quick tab mode enabled) to restart the typing test.
Open the command line by pressing esc - there you can access all the functionality you need without touching your mouse.
stats
wpm - total amount of characters in the correctly typed words, divided by 5
acc - percentage of correctly pressed keys
key - correct characters / incorrect characters. Calculated after the test has ended
bug report or feature request
If you encounter a bug, or have a feature request - join the Discord server, send me a message on Reddit, create an issue on GitHub or send me a message using the command line esc.

tip: You can also change all these settings quickly using the command line (esc)
test difficulty
Normal is the classic type test experience. Expert fails the test if you submit (press space) an incorrect word.
Master fails if you press a single incorrect key (meaning you have to achieve 100% accuracy).
