Conceptual Flow Map of the App: User Login/Authentication:

Step 1: The user logs into the application, possibly through email authentication, OAuth, or some other login method. Step 2: The backend authenticates the user and generates a session token (or API key) for secure communication with the Resemble API. Voice Creation/Customization:

Step 3: The user navigates to the "Create Voice" section where they can either: Upload voice data (if they want to train a completely new voice). Choose a base voice from a list of available voices (Resemble or custom voices that the platform has pre-built). Step 4: If the user chooses to customize a voice: They can adjust pitch, speed, and emotion settings to create variations like different accents, personalities, or tone. Save the customized voice. Voice Management:

Step 5: The user can see a list of their created voices. This list could be shown on their profile page or a dedicated "My Voices" page. Step 6: From this list, the user can: Edit the voice (adjust settings like pitch, speed, emotion). View details about each voice. Delete voices if needed. Text-to-Speech (Synthesize Audio):

Step 7: Once the user has customized a voice (or chosen one from the list), they can enter text for synthesis (e.g., audiobook chapters, sentences, or paragraphs). Step 8: After entering the text, the user can: Select the voice they want to use for the synthesis. Set customizations like pitch, speed, and emotion (or reuse previous settings). Step 9: The backend sends the text, selected voice ID, and settings to the Resemble API's synthesize endpoint. The API returns an audio URL for the generated speech. Step 10: The frontend will play the generated audio. The user can preview the generated audio and make changes if necessary. Audio Playback & Management:

Step 11: After generating the speech, the user can: Play the audio (audiobook chapters, individual lines, etc.). Download the audio file (if you provide this functionality). Store the audio for later use or compilation into a full audiobook. Final Output (Audiobook Creation):

Step 12: As the user creates multiple audio files (for each section or chapter of their audiobook), the app can help them compile these files together into a cohesive audiobook format (MP3, WAV, etc.).

Deployments

Backend

1. When you updated the branch, deploy with with: git push heroku <branch-name>:main
2. Listen to instance with saved command: Backend: Monitor: Heroku instance
3. OPTIONAL: Only need to do this when you set up the app. Set .env keys with: saved command: Backend: Set: .env key.

Frontend

1. Push changes to the branch set to listen to in netlify and it will automatically deploy when pushing to that branch.
