Description

Hello, I created a TTS engine that allows you to use Microsoft Azure and Windows Onecore voices on Linux, but I can't write a Speech Dispatcher module for it because I don't know C++ at all. My engine can be downloaded from here: https://github.com/Smit-TV/NeuralVoicesLinux . I hope you can do this. Happy New Year!

Contributor guide

Research direction
Study existing Speech Dispatcher modules that interface with external TTS engines, understand the plugin API, and implement a module that translates Speech Dispatcher commands to the NeuralVoicesLinux engine's protocol.
