Azure Speech SDK - Rust

Welcome to the Azure Speech SDK, a pure Rust library for interacting with Azure Speech Services.

Overview

This library aims to provide an easy-to-install and straightforward interface for working with Azure Speech Services. Inspired by the official Azure Speech SDK for JavaScript, it is designed to be simple and user-friendly.

The library currently supports the following features:

• Speech Recognition (Speech-to-Text) examples

  • Real-time Speech Recognition
  • Custom Speech Recognition
  • Phrase List
  • Conversation Transcriber - Real-time Diarization (Work in Progress)
  • Pronunciation Assessment (Work in Progress)

• Speech Synthesis (Text-to-Speech) example

  • Real-time Speech Synthesis
  • Custom Voice
  • SSML Support

• Speech Translation (Work in Progress)

• Intent Recognition (Work in Progress)

• Keyword Recognition (Work in Progress)

The library is currently in the early stages of development, and I am actively working on adding more features and improving the existing ones.

Why This Library?

The motivation behind creating this library includes:

1. Providing a Rust implementation of the Azure Speech SDK that eliminates the need for the C++ SDK dependency, offering a simpler alternative to existing implementations.
2. Gaining a deeper understanding of Rust. This project serves as a learning experience for me to explore Rust's capabilities and best practices.

Installation

Add this library to your project using the following command:

cargo add azure_speech
