I wasn't satisfied with other type racing sites because they were not real time enough for me. I wanted to be able to see exactly where the other racers' cursors were and where they made errors.

I don't expect to make money any off of this, but it was fun to build and I find it fun to play with my friends every once in a while.

The stack is React and ChartJS in the FE (that's it), and Rust with Warp in the BE.

Really nice, I especially like the design of the stats.

One thing that throws me off quite a lot is the smooth cursor animation, good to see that you already allow to turn that off.

The website looks amazing! It's one of the nicest type racing website I've seen. :)
This is really well done. I completed it on my phone. I wonder what the gap between typing on a phone and keyboard are?

Anyway awesome project!
