Manan Tank aka EspressoJS, a frontend developer based in India, published his minimal typing app: Cybertype.

It's free, open source, and can work offline as well.

Compared with MonkeyType, Cybertype works in infinite mode so there are no timed sessions. It is much simpler, however, it has features like programming languages, some color schemes, and also a WPM heatmap.

Give it a try!
