Qwerty Learner is a website that helps people who already type fast in their own language build the same muscle memory for typing English. The bilingual description sums it up as a vocabulary-memorization and English muscle-memory training tool designed for "keyboard workers", people whose job is keyboard-heavy. The READme explains the idea: many users type their native language quickly thanks to years of practice, but their English typing is slower and shakier, so this software combines the two tasks of memorizing English words and drilling the keystrokes needed to type them. When you complete a chapter, the app offers an optional dictation mode that asks you to retype the chapter's words from memory, and to stop you from baking in mistakes it forces you to retype any word you mis-enter. It shows live speed and accuracy so you can see your skill improve, and it displays phonetic symbols and plays pronunciations alongside the word. The built-in word lists cover common English exams such as CET-4, CET-6, GMAT, GRE, IELTS, SAT, TOEFL, Chinese postgraduate entrance English, professional level 4 and 8 English, plus a "Coder Dict" of words and APIs that programmers see often, with language packs for JavaScript, Node.js, Java, Linux Command and C# APIs contributed by the community. Japanese, Kazakh and several other dictionaries are also listed. The project is built with React (with Tailwind CSS mentioned in the credits) and the README says you run it locally with Node.js, Git and Yarn, clone the repo, run yarn install then yarn start, and visit http://localhost:5173. A VS Code plugin version is also published.
