Hi Product Hunt!

I built Typocto because most typing tutors assume everyone has a US QWERTY keyboard. If you type on a French AZERTY, a German QWERTZ, a Brazilian ABNT2 or an Arabic keyboard, their lessons drill keys you don't have, in a language you don't write.

Typocto starts from your keyboard and your language:
- Lessons one key at a time, with an on-screen keyboard that shows which finger to use, from the home row to symbols like @ and #
- Adaptive practice that drills the keys that slow you down
- Speed tests from 15 seconds to 5 minutes, with your WPM, accuracy, consistency and the keys to work on
- A verified certificate: take the 5-minute test signed in, the server rechecks every keystroke, and you get a PDF with a link anyone can open
- 10 games: falling words, a ghost race against your own best run, Typo Fight with online duels, Deep Dive (a deep-sea shooter with a giant squid), Octo's Run (an endless runner that can use only the letters you've learned), Word Chain (a word duel against Octo), a letter game for kids... plus Accent Rescue, to learn the accents of Spanish, Portuguese, French, German, Italian and Arabic
- Online races with friends, and whole classic books to type, chapter by chapter
- Short guides in every language: finger placement, typing speed, posture, and how to type accents on any keyboard
- 7 languages (English, Spanish, Portuguese, French, German, Italian, Arabic) and 13 keyboard layouts, including Belgian AZERTY, Swiss QWERTZ and Canadian French

It's free and there's nothing to sign up for: your progress, records and stats stay in your browser. You only need an account for the certificate and the leaderboards.

I'd love your feedback:
1. Which keyboard layout or language should come next?
2. What would make you come back to practise every day?

Thanks for trying it!
