• Multiple Test Durations: Choose from 30, 60, or 90 second tests
• No Backspace Policy: Once typed, characters are final - no corrections allowed
• Smart Word Completion: Press space to skip incomplete words (they count as errors)
• Performance Graph: Visual representation of your typing speed over time
• Mobile Responsive: Works perfectly on both desktop and mobile devices
• Professional Design: Modern glassmorphism UI with smooth animations

Technologies Used

• Next.js 15 - React framework with App Router
• TypeScript - Type-safe JavaScript
• Tailwind CSS - Utility-first CSS framework

Game Rules

• Timer starts only when you begin typing actual characters
• Space bar moves you to the next word or skips incomplete words
• No backspace - characters are final once typed
• Incomplete words pressed with space are marked as errors
• Tab key restarts the test at any time
