Thanks for posting this.

Right now, I am grappling with RSI and I haven't been able to program for more than a few days in the past month. I am not even typing this, but using the Voice Access feature of Windows 11 in order to input this. I ordered an ergonomic keyboard (Glove80) and I am waiting for it. I also have an ergonomic mouse and even got an ergonomic chair. But I know that regardless of the case, I won't be able to program. for at least a few months. Until my hand recovers. If it does at all.

I am definitely going to check out this extension. Quick question: does it work on any language or just something like Javascript?




It works better in some languages rather than others. Python and JavaScript are the best supported. I have been working on making the situation better with go. But I demoed it with JavaScript because JavaScript is the most understandable to the largest part of my audience.

Realistically half of the way to program with voice is syntax. One of the really cool parts with the voice bindings is that the voice binding for making a function is the same in every language. I am honestly quite terrible with Python. However, when I know that the default command to make a function is funky, I can just step right in there and make it work.
