annyang

A tiny JavaScript library that lets website visitors control a site with spoken commands.

New this week

What it does

annyang adds voice commands to a website. A developer lists phrases, such as "hello" or "search for something", and what should happen when a visitor says them.

It relies on the speech recognition built into the visitor's web browser, so it only works where the browser supports it. Its makers say it is very small and has no other dependencies.

Who it's for

Web developers who want to add simple voice control to their sites.
