#Flow - A lightweight, Windows-first teleprompter built with Tauri

I built Flow because I was frustrated seeing all the highly optimized creator tools being built exclusively for macOS, while Windows users were mostly stuck with clunky Electron/Other apps that eat up resources while gaming or streaming.

I needed a teleprompter that I would actually use, something that stays entirely out of the way. I built it from the ground up using Tauri and Rust to keep the system resource usage as low as possible.

A lightweight Windows teleprompter built with Tauri, featuring a minimal always-on-top reading UI, tray controls, script editing, and Groq-powered prompt generation. - LumoRez07/Flow

# solid tree linux when 🥀

i wasn't planning on adding linux support but i might actually add it once i settle on a voice recognition toolkit

#

i am not sure about which one to use vosk, onnx or anything else

solid tree
solid tree

#

cuz i am creating it so even mics on laptops detect the words correctly

#

they arent the best

#

currently i only bundled the english model of vosk so voice tracking currently works with english only, i've decided on using vosk so i added the ability to download specifc languages the user chooses to download

#

if you wanna test it with me i'd be more than happy

solid tree
#

imo choose whatever works best for the majority of ppl. thinking abt bundle size is kinda pointless when apps usually have 500mb nowadays

solid tree
spice igloo
#

yes that is the case, the installer size is at 50mb and i am trying to keep it as small as possible so the user only downlods what they need

solid tree
#

im not employed right now either, so its more like: oh this is really nice, this will be useful in the future

solid tree
#

but if something is heavy but helps users, there is no prob

spice igloo
#

yeah

#

but its more like

#

for laptop users

#

so performance is a must

solid tree
#

same, less than 1gb is a must

solid tree
spice igloo
#

i even included a performance mode where it disables all animations and voicetracking for the sake of keeping the cpu usage as low as 0.5%

solid tree
#

performance is good to think abt

spice igloo
#

yh

solid tree
#

while bundle size is more in the well its good to have it little

spice igloo
#

idk how to add the linux support btw how am i supposed to do it correctly

solid tree
#

but i’d rather have it good without worrying about size

solid tree
#

but right now linux isnt chromium

spice igloo
#

sucks to be me i need to watchout for sizes everytime i add any feature

solid tree
#

so yeah you’ll probably need testing

solid tree
spice igloo
#

yup i will notify you when i add the linux support maybe after completing the voice recognition and voice commands feature

#

i made it like this

#

but the voice commands will stay in english tho
