## Project history and usage

Textream is a free, MIT-licensed macOS teleprompter whose speech-tracking modes highlight or scroll a script as it is read.

### Project history

Textream was created by Fatih Kadir Akin as a free, open-source macOS teleprompter. Its README credits an earlier idea by Semih Kışlar.

### Adoption history

Distributed as a signed macOS application and through Homebrew; the official README also documents installation through the developer's Homebrew tap.

### How it is used

Users paste or import a script, select word-tracking, constant-speed, or voice-activated scrolling, and present it in a notch overlay, floating window, full-screen display, Sidecar display, or browser-connected remote device. Speech processing is described as local and account-free.

### Why package nerds care

Textream combines an unusually focused desktop utility with on-device speech recognition, local-network remote control, URL-scheme automation, and a documented WebSocket protocol.

### Timeline

- 1.6.5: Version recorded by the supplied Homebrew Cask metadata.

### Related projects

- The application uses Apple's on-device speech-recognition facilities and supports Sidecar or external displays as teleprompter outputs.
