My 16MB vibe-coded voice cloning app

Shrinks the usual TTS bloat into a 16MB Electron-alternative wrapper while still letting you clone voices from a short sample and 'design' voices from text prompts. It handles model downloads for you, supports batch exports and macOS auto-updates — smart product trade-offs. Caveat: the app binary is tiny, but the underlying TTS models are downloaded on demand, so expect large model pulls behind the scenes.

Local Voice Assistant

This repo bundles a complete local audio loop — client captures audio, backend transcribes with Parakeet, queries a quantized Mistral LLM via Ollama, then renders speech with Kokoro or Qwen3-TTS for cloning — and reports ~1s round-trip on an RTX5070. It’s a practical, take-it-home demo for running privacy-first voice agents, though it’s still a demo: requires specific tooling (Ollama, GPU headroom), has obvious TODOs (VAD, better warmup for cloning), and isn’t reinventing the architecture.
