DevWPM —Typing Speed Test for Developers

Stop coding like a muggle. Code like a wizard.

DevWPM —Typing Speed Test for Developers launched on May 16, 2026.

What it does

Think your coding skills are fast enough for the leaderboard?! Prove it. Most typing tests use random English words — but developers type code, not prose. DevWPM tests your speed with real code snippets in Python, JavaScript, Java, C++, TypeScript, Go, Rust and SQL. Track your WPM and accuracy, compete on the global leaderboard, and use Practice Mode to improve with structured lessons, symbol drills, and repeat training. Free, no account needed, no fluff.

Free WPM typing speed test for developers. Practice real code snippets in Python, JavaScript, Java, C++ and more. Track your speed, beat the leaderboard.

Test your WPM with real code snippets in Python, JavaScript, Java, C++ and more. Shareable results. Global leaderboard. Pick a symbol group to drill. These are the characters that slow developers down the most. Click to load a focused drill snippet. Repeat mode keeps the same snippet until you hit 3 consecutive runs at 95%+ accuracy . Builds deep muscle memory fast. Touch typing is the single biggest unlock for developer speed. Place your left fingers on A, S, D, F and right fingers on J, K, L, ;. Every key has a home finger — never let your hands drift. Resist the urge to look at the keyboard. It will feel slow at first, but once muscle memory locks in, your speed will exceed what…from devwpm.com

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

  • Hey HN, Henry here from Cactus. We open-sourced Needle, a 26M parameter function-calling (tool use) model. It runs at 6000 tok/s prefill and 1200 tok/s decode on consumer devices. We were always frustrated by the little effort made towards building agentic models that run on budget phones, so we conducted investigations that led to an observation: agentic experiences are built upon tool calling, and massive models are overkill for it. Tool calling is fundamentally retrieval-and-assembly (match query to tool name, extract argument values, emit JSON), not reasoning. Cross-attention…
