history

Project history and usage

toipe is a Rust terminal typing tester focused on short, configurable typing exercises.

Project history

The official GitHub repository was created in January 2022. Its README presents toipe as a terminal-first typing tester distributed through GitHub releases and Cargo.

Adoption history

The README documents release binaries and `cargo install`; source_facts.package-manager records Homebrew, Nix, and openSUSE/zypper packages, indicating adoption across several Unix package ecosystems.

How it is used

Users run `toipe`, adjust the word count with `-n`, select built-in, operating-system, or custom word lists, and optionally add punctuation and sentence case with `-p`.

Why package nerds care

toipe is a compact Rust TUI-style utility with release binaries and Cargo packaging, representative of small terminal applications that are easy to distribute across multiple package managers.

Timeline
