You spend 8 hours a day at a keyboard. You've memorised Git commands, debugged memory leaks at 2am, and built things people actually use. But have you ever actually measured how fast you type? Most developers haven't. And that's a problem — because your typing speed is silently bottlenecking everything you do. The Average Developer Types Slower Than You'd Expect. Studies and aggregated data from typing platforms consistently show the average developer types between 50–65 WPM (words per minute). That sounds decent until you realise: The average office worker types at 40 WPM A fast developer types at 80–100+ WPM The gap between 55 WPM and 90 WPM is roughly 40% more output per hour That's not just faster emails. That's faster code reviews, faster debugging sessions, faster documentation, faster everything. Why Developers Specifically Struggle With Typing Speed Generic typing tests measure English prose. But developers don't type English prose — they type code.…
