About

There is no doubt that typing on a keyboard is an essential skill in the digital age. Typing fast and accurately gives you more opportunities, more time for what matters to you, and a sense of self-accomplishment. Keypunch lets you practice typing. Thanks to fast-paced sessions with instant feedback afterwards and a plethora of available languages, you might even have a little fun doing so. With determination, proper technique and some time, you will observe a noticeable increase in both the speed and the accuracy of which your thoughts and ideas are put into words on the screen. If you are already a racer at typing, Keypunch still has something for you. Try practicing with numbers and punctuation, or choose your own text to type out as fast as you can. Get ready to accelerate your typing! Keypunch is proudly part of GNOME Circle, an initiative that champions the great software that is available for the GNOME platform. For more information, visit the GNOME Circle website.
