## Description

TipType transforms any webpage into an instant typing practice playground — no copying, no login. Click the TipType (T) icon, select text you want to type, and start training with an optional virtual keyboard and finger guides. Sessions auto-pause when you stop typing, and you can navigate text with arrow keys, skip with Tab, restart with Ctrl-R, or finish with Ctrl-S/Esc.

Track detailed stats including WPM/CPM, accuracy, and weaknesses, earn points after each session, and compare results on page-specific or overall leaderboards. Highly customizable (formatting, WPM/CPM toggle, hide/adjust virtual hands), TipType is perfect for students, writers, coders, and anyone who wants to build muscle memory, speed, and focus using real articles, blogs, and pages you already read.
