## Project history and usage

typioca is a minimal terminal typing-speed tester written in Go. Its README frames it as a cozy TUI for timed or word-count typing tests, custom word lists, and cross-platform terminal use.

### Project history

The public GitHub repository was created in March 2022. The README presents typioca as a terminal-based typing tester with WPM calculations, classical-book word and sentence lists, an interactive menu, dynamic and custom word lists, and an SSH server mode via `typioca serve`.

The project is built with Charmbracelet's Bubble Tea, which places it in the modern Go TUI wave rather than the older curses-game lineage represented by tools like Typespeed.

### Adoption history

The README documents installation through Go, Homebrew, Nix, openSUSE Tumbleweed, Scoop, Void Linux, and Winget, and links to Repology for broader packaging status. The batch input likewise records Homebrew, Nix, Scoop, Winget, and zypper packaging.

GitHub release metadata shows active 2.x releases through 2023 and 2024, followed by the 3.x series in 2024.

### How it is used

Users install the `typioca` executable, launch an interactive terminal test, and optionally configure custom word lists through a TOML config file in the documented platform-specific configuration path.

### Why package nerds care

typioca is useful in package catalogs as a compact, self-contained terminal productivity toy: easy to install with Homebrew or OS package managers, visually richer than a bare CLI benchmark, and portable across Linux, macOS, and Windows.

### Timeline

- 2022: Public GitHub repository created.
- 2023: 2.x releases published.
- 2024: typioca 3.0.0 and 3.1.0 releases published.

### Related projects

- The README acknowledges Bubble Tea as the TUI framework. In the package niche, typioca is adjacent to typing-test programs and terminal games, but its packaging and UI style are closer to modern Go command-line apps.
