🚀 keytype.pro — What We Built & Shipped
Big update to [keytype.pro](https://keytype.pro) — a free, no-signup typing speed trainer. Here's everything that landed:
🏁 New domain
Migrated from Vercel preview URL to **keytype.pro** — updated canonical tags, Open Graph, Twitter cards, JSON-LD structured data, sitemap, robots.txt, and the share button all in one go.
🏳️ SVG Language Flags
Replaced broken emoji flags (showed as "GB", "RU" etc. on Windows and in the Tauri desktop app) with hand-crafted inline SVG flags for all 11 languages — EN, RU, DE, FR, ES, IT, PT, PL, TR, NL, SV. Vector, no font dependency, works everywhere.
⚡ Performance — INP from ~200ms to <50ms
Four input-handler optimizations:
- Built a `charEls[wi][ci]` O(1) element map — eliminated `querySelector` on every keystroke
- `badCounts[wi]` counter — no more DOM scans on backspace
- `_cssZoom` cache + `_nxEl` ref — no repeated `getComputedStyle` or key-highlight iteration
- Replaced all `offsetWidth` / synchronous `getBoundingClientRect` reads with `requestAnimationFrame` — zero forced reflows in the hot path
🔍 SEO
- Added Yandex Webmaster verification file + meta tag
- Fixed hreflang: removed duplicate `en`/`ru` tags pointing to the same URL (single-page app = one URL), kept only `x-default` — this was triggering a GSC/Yandex error
- Added `sameAs` to JSON-LD structured data
- Font preloads (`jbm-latin.woff2`, `sg-latin.woff2`) added before all other resources to eliminate render-blocking font discovery
**♿ Accessibility — 89 → ~95/100**
- Language dropdown: `aria-label`, `aria-haspopup`, `aria-expanded` (synced via JS on open/close), `role="menu"` + `role="menuitem"` on all items
- Hidden typing input: `aria-label="Type the displayed text"`
- Close button, volume slider, punctuation/numbers toggles: all properly labeled
🐛 Bug fixes
- Language dropdown was rendering *behind* the word display and keyboard — root cause was `zoom: 1.35` creating a stacking context, fixed by giving `nav-bar` an explicit `z-index` as a flex child
- Focus mode animation fill-mode cascade issue fixed
- Cursor positioning under CSS zoom corrected (`getBoundingClientRect` returns screen-space px; divide by zoom factor for layout px)
