v6.11.1
(LGPL-3.0-only OR GPL-2.0-only OR GPL-3.0-only) AND BSD-3-Clause
Qt shared library providing text-to-speech engine bindings for Qt applications.
Why you might care
QtSpeech is a build/runtime dependency for Qt applications that need text-to-speech synthesis. It abstracts platform-specific TTS engines (system voices on macOS, Windows, Linux) behind a unified Qt API, so developers don't have to call native speech frameworks directly. Required if you're building Qt-based apps that speak text aloud.
