I got bored of typing random words, so I built an app where you type classic stories

For the past few weeks, I've been building a project called TypeMaster, and I'm really excited to share it with you all today.

The Problem: I've always wanted to improve my typing speed, but I found every existing typing test... just plain boring. Practicing with a random jumble of words (price world market good) felt like a chore, and it wasn't helping me improve my actual writing flow.

The Idea: I had a simple thought: "What if I could practice by typing something interesting, like a real story?"

The Build: So, I built it. TypeMaster is a super clean, minimal web app that lets you practice by typing out full chapters from classic books. It's all about finding your rhythm, not just racing a clock.

The Big Update: After getting feedback, the #1 request was for a distraction-free, offline version. So today, I'm also launching the 100% offline Windows app.

It's still early, and I'm building this in public. I would be incredibly grateful for this community's honest feedback.

You can check out the web app here: https://typemaster.ntxm.org

And the new offline app here: https://typemaster.ntxm.org/download

Let me know what you think. What's it missing?
