WordleBot

Inspiration

Wordle, and the craze that surrounds it currently. We wanted it to be more accessible to everyone to be able to enjoy this awesome game

What it does

This program allows you to speak in order to type single words that will then be read back to you in order to verify your choice. The program offers functionality for typing a word, deleting it, and pressing the enter key to solidify your word choice, all without having to touch your keyboard

How we built it

Using AssemblyAI's revolutionary speech to text API and AWS's Polly API text to speech functionality, as well as the ability to simulate key presses from the keyboard to allow users to type single words using keywords that we set.

Challenges we ran into

Learning. None of the people in the group had ever done anything related to python or APIs before this project. We had to learn everything as we went in order to fully complete this program. We had to learn how to code and install everything in python which hindered our progress for a while. We also had to learn what an API was and how to be able to use them effectively with our code.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We're just proud to say that we've completed this project. We came into this event not being sure of what we would be able to accomplish with our skillsets and ended up creating something that we are very proud about and excited to share.

What we learned

How to code in python, what APIs are and what they do, how to use APIs such as AssemblyAI and AWS's Polly API, how to do cool things such as making keyboard macros in python, as well as how to effectively manage and install so many libraries for python.

What's next for WordleBot

While we would like to expand upon it, this is most likely a one and done type deal for this project because we do not have the resources to keep using AssemblyAI and AWS without the support of cuHackit
