Typing Fingers supports both, so every learner practices on the exact keyboard in front of them. | Aspect | ANSI | ISO | | --- | --- | --- | | Origin | Defined by the American National Standards Institute; the standard US layout. | Defined by the International Organization for Standardization; common in Europe. | | Enter key | Wide, single-row rectangular Enter key. | Tall, upside-down L-shaped Enter key spanning two rows. | | Left Shift | Long left Shift key. | Shorter left Shift with an extra key next to it. | | Key count | 104 keys on a full-size keyboard. | 105 keys on a full-size keyboard. | | Right Alt | Right Alt behaves like the left Alt. | Right Alt is AltGr, used to type extra characters and accents. | | Backslash position | Backslash sits above Enter. | Backslash sits next to Enter, in the extra spot. | | Where it's used | USA, Canada and parts of Asia. | Most of Europe, Latin America and many other regions. | Which one should you learn on? The best keyboard is the one you use every day. Typing Fingers detects and supports both standards, so your fingers learn the real positions of your own keys from the very first lesson. ## Products Explore the Typing Fingers family: the classic touch typing tutor, the School Edition for classrooms, and Typing Fingers Enemy - an action typing game. ### Typing Fingers - Fun Touch Typing App for Everyone https://typing-fingers.replit.app/typing-fingers-2 Typing Fingers teaches ten-finger touch typing with a fun, interactive method, beautiful design and peaceful music.
