About

GitType is a Rust CLI typing game that turns source code from real repositories

into typing challenges. It parses code with tree-sitter, renders a terminal UI,

tracks real-time WPM/accuracy/consistency metrics, and unlocks developer titles

through a ranking system. Multi-language support includes Rust, TypeScript,

JavaScript, Python, Go, Ruby, Swift, Kotlin, Java, PHP, C#, C, C++, Haskell,

Dart, Scala, Clojure, Elixir, Erlang, and Zig.

Copy a command tailored to that specific architecture, type, and scope - useful when winget would otherwise pick a different default.

Security

No known CVEs for GitType.

Coverage is best-effort and depends on a winget package mapping to an NVD CPE entry. Absence here is not a guarantee of safety.
