So this looks like a high quality, fast, natural, and open source TTS system in Python. A key candidate for an . Unfortunately, I find addon development super confusing. Is there a good template to start from or something? github.com/thewh1teagle/kokoro-onnx

@pvagner @mush42 I'm not sure. I do kind of worry about a tts developed by and for blind people and if it can be kept up to date and maintained.

@fastfinge I understand @mush42 has made verry significant progress for example as compared to piper TTS. To me it looks it's much lighter for both training and using trained model even enhancing audio quality and elligibility in the process. This is just my guess but with such an achievement it's fine not to limit it to blind audience exclusivelly. This is how I am seeing #optispeech. However I haven't played with kokoro TTS thus I have asked how much do you like it for example while comparing to something else, perhaps piper TTS if you do know that one.

@pvagner @mush42 I like kokoro much better than piper. It sounds more natural with fewer artifacts.
