# basic-tts

Basic wrapper around the [Speech Synthesis API](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/SpeechSynthesis).

This is a bare-bones wrapper with no dependencies besides a browser that supports text-to-speech.

Installation is relatively straightforward via [NPM Package Registry](https://www.npmjs.com/package/basic-tts):

~~~

npm install basic-tts

~~~

Alternatively, you can use [GitHub's Package Registry](https://github.com/gfyoung/basic-tts/packages/57285).

Afterwards, you can check the support of your browser in Node, for example, as follows:

```javascript

const tts = require("basic-tts");

console.log(tts.isSupported());

```

The repository also contains a demo HTML file ([demo.html](https://gfyoung.github.io/basic-tts/demo.html)) where you can also

see whether your browser supports text-to-speech. If it does, you can then see

the package in action.
