What is KTouch?

KTouch is a keyboard training application that enables users, both children and adults, to learn touch typing efficiently. It provides a structured learning experience, guiding users through various levels while introducing new keys incrementally. The program displays the keys that need to be pressed and the corresponding fingers to use, allowing users to focus on the screen rather than searching the keyboard. This approach helps users develop muscle memory and the ability to type quickly and accurately without constantly looking down at the keyboard. KTouch is a free and accessible tool, available for installation on Ubuntu systems through the main menu or a terminal command, making it a convenient resource for improving typing skills
