Native Voices #415

Open sekwah41 opened 11 months ago

sekwah41 commented 11 months ago

This is more a note for myself, though a lot of systems have default voices or voice synth built in. Apples is especially good though it may be nice to trigger native voice synth.

Another example is https://www.nvaccess.org/download/ so we may want to look at optimisation with screen readers or if we need to though that would probably be best as a separate ticket.

Maybe we can use the native API for this (?): https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Web_Speech_API#speech_synthesis

I don't use macos but reading the docs I feel like the native voice synth might be available.

Seems like we could also add the voice recognition build in 🤔 https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/SpeechRecognition

though good spot
