Text to Speech Web App

Overview

The Text to Speech Web App is a powerful and user-friendly application designed to convert text into natural-sounding speech. This web-based tool utilizes cutting-edge technologies, including the GTTS (Google Text-to-Speech) library, to provide an efficient and seamless text-to-speech conversion experience.

Key Features

• Speech Generation: Instantly convert typed or pasted text into high-quality speech output.
• GTTS Integration: Leverages the GTTS library to harness the power of Google's advanced text-to-speech engine.
• Responsive Design: Ensures a consistent and user-friendly experience across various devices.
• Easy-to-Use Interface: Intuitive interface for straightforward text input and audio playback.

Technologies Used

• Flask: Backend framework for handling web requests and serving the application.
• GTTS (Google Text-to-Speech): Library for interfacing with Google Translate's text-to-speech API.
• HTML, CSS, JavaScript: Frontend technologies to create an interactive and visually appealing user interface.

How it Works

1. Text Input: Users can enter or paste the desired text into the input area provided on the web app.
2. Speech Generation: Upon clicking the "Predict" button, the text is sent to the server.
3. GTTS Conversion: The server uses the GTTS library to convert the text into speech.
4. Audio Playback: The generated speech is played back to the user through an embedded audio player on the web page.
