A typing app to practice Korean

Kobrd

Kobrd (a mashup of the words "Korean" and "keyboard") was made as part of CS50's web track and as a landing page for the typing app I made for the classe's final project.

I've been learning Korean on and off since High School and always struggled to type in Korean on a computer keyboard. Although the app is far -eons- from being perfect, my typing speed has already become a little bit faster.

The App features :

• 12 Levels to fully learn how to type on a Korean keyboard
• Highlighting of correct and wrong input
• Progress bar
• WPM rate
• Motivational quotes generated randomly at the start of each level
• Virtual keyboard to act as visual aid
• Game Mode : generates random 10-word sentences based on 1000 most used Korean words
• Dark Mode (based on browser preferences)

kobrd's Issues

Sugguestion on level advancement logic

First, I wanna say that this is the best app I encountered so far for learning to type in Korean! The website looks well-polished and the UI looks gorgeous. Thanks for developing this awesome app! One small issue I encountered is that I'm automatically transferred to Game Mode after completing a level. It would be great if I can automatically arrive at the next level. I also wish there are more words to practice for each level.
