OMG, that list of frontend dependencies is just soul-crushing. How does anyone stay sane using NodeJS?

Actually, wasn’t bad when I looked at it. I’ve seen much much x5 worse.

A few font-awesome, testing-library, ES-Lint & react imports. Some of those broader libraries have been broken up so you don’t have to import the whole enchilada.

But ya in a larger project, mixing and matching the versions of some of those components can get tricky. This repo seems reasonable in dependencies, the dependencies of dependencies on the other hand can be crazy in any project these days.

Is there an API for getting the data to annotate into that app, and for getting the annotations out? Most of the time I need the labels in my own system, and don't want to manually move data back and forth.

Yes! To add data to your project, we provide an API-Key and an endpoint to upload the data.

To export the data, there's an option on admin panel from where you can download it in JSON format.

Please check the tutorials section for more details: https://github.com/midas-research/audino/blob/master/docs/tu...

This is incredible!

While we were trying to build up a corpus of transcription data for our company, I often thought we should build something like this an open-source it. We ended up building a one-off hacked-up thing to do it instead, but I'm really glad this exists for any future people in our shoes.

Annotating speech data is super tedious and anything that improves the process even 10% is a huge, huge win.

What are some example usages of this? I could not really tell right away looking at the docs. Why would I want to use this?

At our lab, we extensively work on problems that involve speech data. This includes tasks like speech recognition, speech scoring, emotion recognition, topic detection and speaker diarisation. Some of these tasks have public data available, while tasks like speech scoring and low-resource speech recognition, the data is fairly limited for supervised learning. Hence, we developed this annotation tool to generate corpus for our need.

Even we used to do the same. Hence, we developed this tool to mitigate a lot of the pain points that previous tools brought. Thanks for sharing your experience and would love to hear your experience with this tool.
