Enable SpeechSynthesis within Zotero?

JacobPersi · January 9, 2023

I'd like to create a plugin that uses the Javscript SpeechSynthesis ( https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/SpeechSynthesis ) API to read out documents, however, it seems this feature is not present within the current version of Javascript running in Zotero.

What JS engine is running within Zotero, is it possible to enable this feature?

Zotero is running on Firefox 60 (or 68, always get this confused) ESR, so this should be available. Post to https://groups.google.com/g/zotero-dev/ (where technical/development related discussion happen) with some examples of what's not working that should.
