Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Any recommendation for human like voice AI model for conversation AI?
Fast or good, choose one
Mozilla's TTS is a python package installable with pip and uses cpu or gpu resources to render a choice of voices, they mostly sound natural and this is the good. https://github.com/mozilla/TTS
Mycroft's mimic3 is the default voice renderer for the Mycroft project that runs on pi hardware and sounds ok-ish, that is the fast. https://github.com/MycroftAI/mimic3
There are many others but these are the two I use according to if it needs to run on limited hardware or if the cycles fall freely from the sky.

Coqui.ai Is Shutting Down
Coqui-ai was a commercial continuation of Mozilla TTS and STT (https://github.com/mozilla/TTS).
At the time (2018-ish), it was really impressive for on-device voice synthesis (with a quality approaching the Google and Azure cloud-based voice synthesis options) and open source, so a lot of people in the FOSS community were hoping it could be used for a privacy-respecting home assistant, Linux speech synthesis that doesn't suck, etc.
After Mozilla abandoned the project, Coqui continued development and had some really impressive one-shot voice cloning, but pivoted to marketing speech synthesis for game developers. They were probably having trouble monetizing it, and it doesn't surprise me that they shut down.
An equivalent project that's still in active development and doing really well is Piper TTS (https://github.com/rhasspy/piper).

What self hosted app do you wish existed?
An RSS reader that integrates TTS (or TTS)

Audio Converter! How to write one in c/c++?
My solution would be to use a speech synthesis library, maybe eSpeak or Festival, just for ease of use; I think they each provide a library that you could use from C or C++ easily. This one from Mozilla is a more modern system with better-quality output, but it looks like it's set up to run through Python, and I haven't looked at it closely enough to see how much work it would be to get it working for you.

Web Speech API is (still) broken on Linux circa 2023
There is a lot of TTS and SST development going on (https://github.com/mozilla/TTS; https://github.com/mozilla/DeepSpeech; https://github.com/common-voice/common-voice). That is the only way they work: Contributions from the wild.

[P] Balacoon: free-to-use text-to-speech
unfortunately not yet. I need to expand the library of languages and voices. looking around, it seems only Coqui had some traction re Brazilian Portuguese: https://github.com/mozilla/TTS/issues/160. If you foresee wide adoption of the tech for this locale, hit me up with DM

Does anyone know how to set up Mozilla TTS to work with firefox's reader view?

Have we reached a point of no return on managing software dependencies?
I'm just trying to use coqui-ai/TTS so I can stream speech synthesis output to the browser as I do with eSpeak NG https://github.com/guest271314/native-messaging-espeak-ng. I think the issue has been brought up before on GitHub. I have not read a solution. I am ready to try again if you can suggest a minimal build process.

Deno should target the browser officially
You can use a Native Messaging host to run local code controlled from the browser. See native-messaging-deno for a general purpose and extensible solution and deno-server where Deno's serveTls is dynamically started to run a local application, stream stdout from the application to the browser, then stop the local server.

IAMA senior javascript dev, ask me anything
I've already achieved the requirement multiple ways, already; from using Native Messaging https://github.com/guest271314/native-messaging-espeak-ng, to using GNU Core Utilities tail, to Deno.watchFs() https://github.com/guest271314/fs, et al., see captureSystemAudio. The one approach I have not yet achieved is compiling to Emscripten - with SSML support.

how to fix these errors when trying to request from a rest API?
Create a self-signed certificate. If you are on Chromium or Chrome launch with --ignore-certificate-errors-spki-list=.... Read this https://github.com/GoogleChrome/samples/blob/gh-pages/webtransport/webtransport_server.py#L42-L72. This is how I use HTTPS for Deno and Node local servers and WebTransport https://github.com/guest271314/native-messaging-espeak-ng/tree/deno-server.

Which backend JavaScript framework is the one you use ?
I use the source code for Deno's serveTls https://github.com/guest271314/native-messaging-espeak-ng/blob/deno-server/local_server.js and wrote a Web server module for QuickJS https://github.com/guest271314/webserver-c/tree/quickjs-webserver.

Web Speech API is (still) broken on Linux circa 2023
I created https://github.com/guest271314/native-messaging-espeak-ng which provides a means to send text or SSML to the eSpeak NG speech synthesis engine and parse the generated WAV in the browser. That bypasses waiting around another N years for Google to prioritize Web Speech API, which I see no evidence of Google doing - except for its cloud service.

Build a Text-to-Speech component in React
I merely read the article to see how the author was implementing "Text-to-Speech"; how they implemented "Text-to-Speech"; e.g., native-messaging-espeak-ng to overcome or avoid the multiple issues and limitations with using the specified Web Speech API in the browser.
