Creating Typing Speed Test Project Using JavaScript
In this project, you’ll test and measure typing speed with a random paragraph using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. Here is a brief description of each feature that you are going to build:
Random paragraph selection: A paragraph is displayed when the test starts or restarts.
Typing input: The user types into the provided text area compared with the paragraph.
Speed calculation: The application calculates typing speed in words per minute (WPM).
Accuracy calculation: The application compares typed words to the original paragraph and calculates accuracy.
Control buttons: The user can evaluate results at any point, even before completing the paragraph.
Restart feature: The user can restart anytime, clearing the input field and displaying a new random paragraph.
As you implement the required features, you’ll build the following components, enhancing the project’s functionality and user experience.
HTML: Text area, results section
CSS: Timer styling, layout design
JavaScript: Typing logic, accuracy calculation
Let’s start the exciting journey to implement the Typing Speed Test project.
