Looks good. My wish list (some of these are mentioned below by others):

- don't worry about target wpm, just worry about getting faster from a baseline and automatically adjust that baseline from current speed.

- repeat words that recently failed / took longer to type after some spacing (spaced repetition)

- fail words which are committed rather than making me correct them to continue (I'm of two minds about this, is correcting a mistake faster than just continuing and coming back to mistakes or the other way around?)

- consider a prose mode that shows more context to type (grab some paragraphs from project gutenburg perhaps?)

- consider a code mode (more difficult as autocomplete is a thing and different per IDE)
