Build a Typing Speed Test with JavaScript and CSS

2h 26m 45s
English
Paid

Do you want to enhance your JavaScript skills with a truly engaging project? In this course, you will create a fully interactive typing speed test application that checks the speed and accuracy of typing within a limited time frame.

You will dive into key aspects of frontend development: working with the DOM in real-time, event handling, timer management — all while creating an application you can showcase or even use to compete with friends. You will also master responsive design and simple yet effective error handling for stable interface operation.

This project is not just a typing trainer, but a practical way to boost your confidence and understand how interactive web applications really work.

About the Author: Zero To Mastery

Zero To Mastery thumbnail

Zero To Mastery (ZTM) is a Toronto-based online coding academy founded by Andrei Neagoie, originally a senior developer at large Canadian tech firms before turning to teaching full-time. The academy's signature is the cohort-based bootcamp track combined with a deep self-paced course library, all aimed at career-changers and self-taught developers preparing to land software-engineering roles at top companies.

The instructor roster has grown well beyond Andrei to include other senior practitioners: Daniel Bourke (machine learning), Aleksa Tešić (DevOps), Jacinto Wong, and others. Courses cover the full software-engineering career path: web development with React and Next.js, Python, machine learning and deep learning, DevOps and cloud, system design, mobile, and the algorithm / data-structure interview prep that gates engineering jobs.

The CourseFlix listing under this source carries over 120 ZTM courses spanning that full range. Material is paid; ZTM itself runs on a monthly / annual membership model. The teaching style favours long-form, project-based courses where students build complete portfolio-quality applications rather than disconnected feature tutorials.
