How can you sound a site?

Question

speech synthesis

I am developing a website for a scientific library (a bunch of articles, records, etc.).
Site on bootstrap and wordpress .
The site must be accessible to very visually impaired people.
There is a resizable text. But the voice acting is questionable (on hover)
I think to use something like a speech synthesizer and feed it text, but are there any , or how to do it in JS ?

Answer 1

I'm afraid that this cannot be implemented in JS.
The first thing that comes to mind is to install text to speech on the server so that it generates mp3 / wav from text on request.
On the page, JS receives the selected text, sends it via AJAX to the server, and receives an mp3 in response and plays it. I think you can start with Synthesis of Russian speech in Linux . The task is not trivial...
In general, there are online services. For example:
