About Typre

Typre is a typing trainer aimed at programmers, serving real code snippets instead of English prose so users practice brackets, operators, semicolons and indentation. It covers 14 languages and formats — JavaScript, TypeScript, C#, Python, Java, Go, SQL, Bash, C/C++, Rust, HTML, CSS, JSON, plus a dedicated special-characters drill — with 2,590 snippets total, at least 60 per language for each of the 15, 30 and 60 second run lengths, shuffled so no snippet repeats before a full round completes. Users can also paste in their own code to practice typing it, with smart quotes, tabs and invisible characters converted to stay typeable.

The tool measures WPM, CPM, accuracy, raw speed and consistency, and tracks the characters a user misses most often. It includes XP, levels, achievements and daily streaks, a real-time mode to race a friend on the same snippet via a shared link, a leaderboard (all-time, weekly or daily, filterable by language, run length, or friends-only) for signed-in users, and a separate drill for VS Code and Vim keyboard shortcuts.

Typre works offline once installed to a home screen, since the full snippet library ships with the app; only the leaderboard requires a network connection. It is free with no account required to type, no ads, and no paid tier — signing in is only needed for leaderboard submission, friends, and syncing XP across devices.

Frequently asked questions

Is Typre free?

Yes, it is free with no account required to type, no ads, and no paid tier. Signing in only adds leaderboard, friends, and syncing XP between devices.

Which programming languages can I practice?

Fourteen options: JavaScript, TypeScript, C#, Python, Java, Go, SQL, Bash, C/C++, Rust, HTML, CSS, JSON, and a punctuation drill. You can also paste your own code to practice typing it.

Does it work offline?

Yes, every snippet ships inside the app so you can practice with no network once it has loaded. Only the leaderboard requires a connection.

Who is Typre for?

It is built for programmers who want to practice typing brackets, operators, and symbols instead of English prose. It targets the characters that actually slow coders down while programming.

How is WPM measured?

A word counts as five characters, so WPM is correct characters divided by five, divided by minutes elapsed. Raw WPM counts every keystroke including mistakes, and consistency compares speed second by second.
