ZoTTS - Text To Speech plugin
188BET靠谱吗Hello Zotero Community,
188BET靠谱吗I recently came across a a GitHub repopository for a future Text-to-Speech (TTS) plugin for Zotero, called "ZoTTS".188BET靠谱吗This plugin aims to add TTS functionality to the Zotero PDF viewer.
188BET靠谱吗TTS in Zotero has been requested both here on the forum and elsewhere online several times over a number of years.188BET靠谱吗If one day this plugin is finished and available, it will be a big step in the right direction towards a more accessible Zotero for dyslexics, autistics, people with ADHD, and others with reading difficulties.
188BET靠谱吗I have no affiliation with the creator of this plugin, but I believe that a TTS plugin will be a valuable addition to our Zotero toolkit.I thought it would be worth sharing with the community.
I don't know programming and unfortunately have little to contribute, but maybe there is someone here who can and wants to?Any feedback or suggestions can be directed to the plugin's GitHub repository/ creator for the developer(s) to review.
As far as I can see, it's Ben Jaeger (ImperialSquid) who is the creator.( https://github.com/ImperialSquid)
Repository URL: 188BET靠谱吗https://github.com/ImperialSquid/zotero-zotts

I'm not a programmer either, unfortunately, but I just want to join in encouraging anyone who is able to contribute to consider working on this project!It would help me a lot with reading.Having speech move along at a certain pace instead of my reading, which I can stop and ponder one point for hours down a rabbit hole, much increases the chances I will get to the end of any text.
I am also not a programmer, but I do have ADHD, so I also encouraging anyone who is willing to work on this project.this kind of extension can improve my working life tremendously.
Bonus points, if the designed add on could have a function where you can press a button (preferably one that you can link to say an earbud button) that then highlights the last paragraph or 2 sentences of text (or the last x seconds of text) and then lets you record up to 30 seconds of your voice which is then converted to text and put in the highlighted section as a note.
This would be an amazing way to go through academic papers and would allow me to do a decent portion of my PhD while mountain biking, which seems like a great way to do part of my PhD.
I spent an hour trying to get it built (I'm no programmer either) and in its current state may not be entirely safe:
"high-severity vulnerability in pdfjs-dist can potentially lead to arbitrary JavaScript execution upon opening a malicious PDF."
So if you're like me and want to download / compile, you may want to wait for further development.
Just dropping a comment to ZoTTS is finally done! 188BET靠谱吗https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/116141/announcing-zotts-a-text-to-speech-plugin-for-zotero

@thoreaubakkerthat particular error was due to packages I was using, not my code, the current versions (of my code and others) has eliminated all vulnerabilities, you can use ZoTTS without any fear!
Can't @ them, but if you see this Ross, I've made a note of your requests!
