Starting Out with Python and Deepgram Live Streaming Audio

This blog post discusses how to transcribe live streaming audio using Python web frameworks and Deepgram's speech-to-text service. The four Python web frameworks covered are FastAPI, Flask 2.0, Quart, and Django. Each framework has its own pros and cons, but all can be used with Deepgram for real-time audio transcription. FastAPI is innovative and easy to use, while Flask 2.0 is lightweight and flexible. Quart is asynchronous and similar to Flask, making it easier to serve WebSockets. Django follows a "Batteries included" philosophy and uses Channels for real-time communication. Deepgram's Python SDK handles pre-recorded and live streaming speech recognition transcription, allowing developers to choose their preferred framework for integrating with the service.
