Progressbar

[sina-parsania]

I want to create a progress bar based on the word that is currently being read. How can this be done?

I think it should definitely be possible but not sure how reliable will it be as currently the only way of knowing which word is being read via the Web Speech API is the onboundary event which is not very reliable on chrome.
Nonetheless, I think its a good idea to implement and I am planning to provide the progress via the onBoundary function.

Hi @sina-parsania,

I’m happy to let you know that [email protected] now introduces a progress parameter in the onBoundary callback, which allows tracking word-level speech progress.

You can see the usage details here.

This should help you implement a progress bar based on the current word being read. Let me know if you run into any issues or have feedback.
