I want to improve my touch typing skills on Linux. I’m curious:

  1. What tool or program would you recommend for learning touch typing on Linux?
  2. For someone whose native language isn’t English, would you recommend learning on their native keyboard layout or switching to the US QWERTY layout for programming purposes?

I use programmers Dvorak but I would recommend learning what you think would be best for you. If you frequently need to use someone elses keyboard, learn your native layout
