What is the Home Row and Why is it So Important?

So, what did you just practice? The home row is the single most important concept in all of touch typing. Think of it as the “home base” for your fingers in a game. It’s the central position where your fingers always stay and comback after stroke keys. However, today we will not go to other key bars. After completeing todays, we will move to other key bar then it will be very clear.
