Type Tracker (Typing Speed Tester)

This project is a desktop application developed in C++ with the Qt framework that functions as a typing speed tester (similar to TypeRacer or 10fastfingers).

This project is an excellent example of a complete application, featuring a graphical interface and business logic.

Features

• Graphical User Interface (GUI): Developed using Qt Designer, providing an intuitive user experience.
• Words Per Minute (WPM) Count: Calculates typing speed in real-time.
• Accuracy: Monitors and displays the percentage of correct and incorrect entries.
• Time Control: Management of the test duration.
• Game Logic: Implementation of the logic to compare the user's input with the reference text.

Demonstrated Concepts

• Desktop Application Development: Use of the Qt framework to create a cross-platform application.
• Object-Oriented Programming (OOP): Class structure for the main window (TypeTracker), game logic, and interface management.
• Event Handling: Handling of keyboard events to capture user input.
• Interface Management: Use of Qt widgets and layouts to build the GUI.
• Modern C++: Utilization of C++ features and libraries.

Project Structure

The project follows the standard structure of a Qt project:

• TypeTracker.pro: Qt project file.
• typetracker.ui: XML file describing the graphical interface (generated by Qt Designer).
• typetracker.h / typetracker.cpp: Implementation of the application's main class.
• main.cpp: Application entry point.

How to Compile and Run

This project requires the Qt Framework and Qt Creator to be easily compiled and run.

1. Open the TypeTracker.pro file in Qt Creator.
2. Configure the build kit (Debug/Release).
3. Execute the build.
4. Run the application.

Language: C++ (Qt Framework) Topics: Desktop Development, GUI (Qt), OOP, Event Handling.
