Hands-Free Development
Coding with Voice Commands
Basic Usage:
- Type
/voice
in the chat - Speak your request clearly
- Press ENTER when done
Configuration Options:
# Set audio format (wav, webm, mp3)
aider --voice-format wav
# Specify language for transcription
aider --voice-language en
# Select input device
aider --voice-input-device "Device Name"
Best Practices:
- Speak clearly and provide specific details
- Use natural language to describe your needs
- Consider starting with voice for high-level requests, then refine with text
Voice coding is particularly useful when referencing documentation, discussing code with colleagues, or when you prefer to express complex ideas verbally.
