What is Sweet?

Sweet is a Software Engineering Exercise for Typing. In other words, it's a touch typing exercise command line interface specifically designed for programmers.

Installation

Using go

Assuming you have go installed, you can use the following command:

$ go install github.com/NicksPatties/sweet@latest

Now you can use sweet!

Downloading an executable

You can also look in the releases section for an executable which matches your operating system and system architecture.

  1. Download the executable with the matching operating system and architecture in the file name. The executables in the release are shown in the format sweet_<os>_<arch>.

  2. Verify your downloaded executable is the same by comparing its checksum with the provided checksum in the release page. You can use a terminal command like this to generate the checksum for comparison.

    $ shasum -a 256 <your_sweet_executable_file>
    

    If the checksums do not match, do not run the file. Please notify us by reporting an issue on our GitHub page.

  3. If the executable looks good, then place the executable in a folder that is specified by your $PATH variable.

If all is well, then you're ready to use sweet!
