- monkeytype.com Monkeytype | A minimalistic, customizable typing test
The most customizable typing test website with a minimal design and a ton of features. Test yourself in various modes, track your progress and improve your speed.
Obvious link but maybe not everyone knows about it. I used Keybr for 2 weeks, but was frustrated by the lack of improvement and the fake words. I now use Monkeytype and it's great. You can type real quotes, and it has Colemak emulation if you haven't installed the layout yet.
I can only type 25 WPM so far but I seldom hit the wrong keys and I try to use it at work as much as I can. It's really better than QWERTY so far.

Colemak on iPadOS
Coming to you from my iPad and my old mechanical keyboard plugged in via a USB-C adapter! Go to Settings -> General -> Keyboard -> Hardware keyboards Finally select the language then scroll down to Colemak!
My girlfriend is using the desktop to watch a movie and I wanted to type something up. Never thought I could do it on my iPad but here we are :)
Just wanted to let you all know. Not sure how long this has been possible for; pretty sure it's only possible if you've got a physical keyboard connected via USB or Bluetooth.
