The Voice Memo Repository

What is this?

This is a service consisting of a Javascript (React) frontend and Node backend for quickly and easily recording, storing, removing, and sharing short audio recordings made natively in the browser.

What is this written in?

  • Javascript (React),
  • Node.js.

What are some of the main features?

  • Frontend (website):
    • Uses React with Material-UI to present a responsive and simple UI,
    • Uses the Media Stream API for native in-browser audio recording, compression, and playback,
    • Uses uuid and the Web Storage API for identification purposes (no manual login/registration required to provide a list of a particular browser's past recordings).
  • Backend (server):
    • Uses Express to provide a simple server,
    • Uses Multer for handling file uploads,
    • Uses lowdb for storing a database of recordings per user,
    • Regularly removes old recordings and their corresponding entries.

How do I use this?

  1. Provide necessary permissions,
  2. Press record button (note: the Media Stream API only allows for recording on localhost or https),
  3. Press stop button or wait 5 minutes,
  4. Press play button to listen to recording (optional),
  5. Press upload button,
  6. Press copy icon next to new entry in list of recordings,
  7. Share recording with other people.
