I built a simple client side PNG steganography tool
Hey all, Last year I attempted to build an assistive voice programming tool as part of my undergraduate dissertation in CS. Speech2Code offers support for the basic features of the JavaScript language, accepts commands in both English and Portuguese, integrates well with the VSCode editor, and also works on the browser. Hope you like, thanks!

Speech2Code is a voice programming tool that allows developers to write JavaScript code using spoken commands. It supports basic JavaScript features and accepts voice input in both English and Portuguese. The tool integrates with VSCode and runs in web browsers, making it accessible across different development environments. Speech2Code was created as an undergraduate computer science dissertation project focused on assistive programming.

At the end of university, I decided to pick it up again and finally, using OpenAi's Whisper for speech recognition and Meta's NLLB for translation (with both running locally on the phone), I managed to…
