A live typing-speed overlay — because I like watching the needle move.

01The problem

I love typing fast (Monkeytype will confirm), and I wanted my live speed visible whatever I'm doing — not just inside a typing-test website.

02What I built

A lightweight always-on-top overlay: real-time WPM from global key events, a live graph, colour-coded speed bands.

03The outcome

A small tool, public on GitHub, that says something bigger: when I want a thing to exist, I build it the same week.
