TypeRacer recreated for Slack! Compete to get the fastest typing speed


Summary#

SlackRacer uses the commands and chat:write:bot scopes to provide a light copy of the popular TypeRacer game.

Initiate a race with the /race slash command and when the dialog box pops up, copy the text by hand as fast as possible.

Afterwards the bot will reply with your WPM and correctness. Since there is no real-time feedback with Slack, errors in your submission will not be known until you submit. Make sure to be 100% accurate! Also, the system is heavily honor-based because
of api limitations!

Installation#

Simply click the Add to Slack button above and authorize the app.


Commands#

/race: starts a race

/race_highscores: displays high scores for the workspace

/race_help: information on how to request help or give feedback
