I made a browser click tester to fix my mouse

Eric_Riley · 1d ago

It started as a personal attempt to debug missed clicks on a cheap wireless mouse. I ended up building a minimal browser-based click tester using plain JavaScript — no frameworks, no libraries. Along the way, I learned a few surprising things about human perception, hardware quirks, and input latency.

The tool is now used by QA testers, gamers, and even accessibility folks. It was a fun, weirdly practical project that lives somewhere between a toy and a utility.

Would love thoughts/feedback.
