artyom.js

Why we included this project

Artyom is a compact wrapper around Chrome's Web Speech APIs for adding voice commands and spoken responses to a web page. It covers both directions: speech recognition against commands you define, and speech synthesis to reply out loud. That makes it a good fit for dashboards, assistive interfaces, and kiosk screens where you want a user to say something like 'turn on the lights' and get a spoken acknowledgment. Commands can be defined at runtime, which suits quick prototypes and simple in-page assistants without pulling in a heavier ML stack. One catch: modern Chrome requires a click or touch on the page before the speech APIs activate, so you'll want to trigger the first interaction to unlock voice features.
