Meet the codewave.sh, speed typing game for developers

Hi, quick post.

I love speed typing and practice it almost everyday, i think its a great way to practice you brain processor, but, most of the tools that are presented right now is either outdated or do not completely implemented for developers and mirrors what we actually need, so i thought why not implement my vision

Meet the codewave.sh, modern + minimalistic speed typing game for developers

Image description

Current features:

  • 15+ programming languages based on 3 levels of difficulty
  • 3 game mods to practice different aspects of typing
  • 20+ code themes from Monokai to GitHub Dark and Nord
  • leaderboard (try hardcore mode on hard difficulty btw)

My current goal is to build an open platforms so anyone can:

a)practice different aspect of code typing
b)memorize and learn different structures and mechanically remember them.

Right now im working on building a story mode where you can learn different code structure from variable and loops to functions and classes.

Thanks to anyone for reading this, im thinking of opensourcing this project so will be glad to see you!

pretty cool - been cool seeing steady progress in stuff like this, tbh i always wonder if it’s really habits that keep me coming back or something else, you think routine actually matters more than motivation for getting better at this stuff?

consistency matters the most for me motivation is the short burst of interest, you want a prize quick, one of the things that i learned from experience is that if you want to deliver a product with decent qualits its gonna take time and its gonna take work, a lot of it. so i think most important is: be consistent, dont overload yourself, everyone have a different pace

This is actually what I've been missing - most typing games don't feel made for devs at all. Will you add any super niche languages or weird typing challenges?
