A small application to use computer speech to text to show translation online and live. This makes sense for scenarios such as hearing impaired or recording something to be more machine readable.
NOTE: This requires the Chrome browser for the transcription to work. It uses a built in feature in Chrome for text to speech. It's text-to-speech feature only works when the page is running on a server (localhost is fine), and the device has an internet connection.
Clone this repo:
git clone https://github.com/marktnoonan/transcription.git
In the root directory of the project on your computer, run the following commands:
npm install
npx parcel index.html
The first command will install any dependencies listed in the package.json file, and the second will use parcel open a port on localhost and serve index.html there.
Point your Chrome browser to localhost:1234
.
This should get you up and running. Please report failures/problems with the build process and we will update this file as needed.
Currently doing "trunk-based" development, where most work is happening on the master branch, and contributors should run git fetch
regularly before doing new work. Short-lived branches for particular features or experiments are fine, but typically this has been a small enough project without many contributors working at the same time, so the simpler we can keep it the better.
Triggered manually from the master branch Netlify when we are ready to publish a new update.
