0.2 Master your tools

Amongst the other assignments, practice mastering your tools.

• [x] Take a baseline test to see how fast you're tying. At a bare minimum you should be able to type 40 WPM by bootcamp.
  • [x] To learn the basics in touch typing and to improve your speeds, try either: Touch Typing Study or TypingClub. OR
  • [x] If you are already an accomplished touch typist, use typing.io and practice typing code, which has a ton of strange symbols.
  • [x] Try zty.pe, but careful: it's addictive! Time box it!
• [x] Record your typing speed in the waffle comments below.

The end goal is to touch type. Even if you've mastered good speed using your own typing style, you need to be able type WITHOUT LOOKING AT THE KEYBOARD!! Practice touch typing through all coding assignments.

• [x] Practice your Sublime shortcuts - Mac and Windows/Linux or try shortcutfoo.
• [x] Record the new Sublime shortcuts you use in the waffle comments below.
• [x] Record all any new terminal commands you used this week in the waffle comments below.
