Hello HN, author here.
I wrote a command line version of this app several years ago but it was only recently that I decided to make a more user-friendly version when a friend grumbled about how the priority speaker function in Discord would be really useful if it supported voice activation. So I said I could probably help with that, and a few weekends later, this was the result.
It's written in C11 with just a sprinkle of C++. The UI uses Nuklear [1] with a DirectX 11 renderer.
