# A.V.A.T.A.R Server
[](https://discord.gg/CkJ7swNXYb)
A.V.A.T.A.R is an open source client-server speech recognition assistant dedicated to the design of [intelligent homes](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Home_automation) and the [Internet of Things](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_of_things)
The principle is to dictate a rule via a client, which is sent to the server. The server translates it into English and analyzes it using [Natural Language Processing (NLP)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural_language_processing). If an intention is found, the server triggers the associated script.
These scripts (or plugins) developed in [Node.js](https://nodejs.org/) interact with all connected objects that can be controlled (home automation box, TV box, TV, Wi-Fi speaker, lamp, gadget...), Open Data (TV programs, cinema schedules, world weather, wikipedia...) or even other voice assistants (like Google assistant).
Web Technologies
Develop your plugins in Node.js, HTML, and CSS.
Cross-platform
Compatible with macOS, Windows, and Linux, A.V.A.T.A.R runs on three platforms and supports all architectures supported by Electron.
Open Source

## Plugin development made easy
A.V.A.T.A.R is the core of your applications, so all you have to do is develop plugins that interact with what you want to manage, and A.V.A.T.A.R takes care of the rest. To this end, A.V.A.T.A.R offers you a development API and a host of tools for easily creating and managing your plugins.

Widget Studio
If you want to dispense with voice recognition (or using it with), A.V.A.T.A.R also offers a tool for creating and managing button widgets in server and client interfaces to do what you want. These widgets also interact with home automation boxes.
Creating windows
You can also add your own JS/HTML/CSS to the application to create your own graphical windows. For example, to receive video from an intercom or whatever you want!
