Microsoft Cognitive Services - Voice Assistant Sample Code

Overview

This repository includes everything needed to build a sample Voice Assistant hosted in your own Azure subscription, with a client application of your choice. Voice Assistants use Microsoft's Speech SDK in the client application to connect to Direct Line Speech Channel and your Bot-Framework bot. Voice Assistants can be keyword activated using keyword model files in this repository or new ones you create.

If you are writing a Bot-Framework bot, read the tutorial Voice-enable your bot using the Speech SDK, and use sample clients in this repo to help you get started.

Or just browse individual components per the repository content below.
