Inspiration

There are a lot of Typing Tests online. But almost all those website is filled with ads. Thats why we built this minimalistic website to check your typing speed.

What we want it to do

Just start typing on the text box and press Enter once you finish typing. The typing speed and accuracy will be displayed.

How we built it

We used React and Reactstrap for the front end and NodeJS and MongoDB Atlas for the backend and hosted the website in Google Cloud.

Challenges we ran into

All the technologies that we used in this project (React, NodeJS and MongoDB) were completely new to us. So it took quite a lot of effort to learn all these technologies and build a application within 2 days.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Even though at times we thought we couldn't finish the project in time, we somehow managed to finish and submit on time.

What we learned

We learned about React, Reactstrap, NodeJS, MongoDB and the Google Cloud platform.

What's next for Typing test

We plan to improve the UI and add several other features as well, like login.
