Speech-to-text has become integral part of my dev flow especially for dictating detailed prompts to LLMs and coding agents.

I have collected the best open-source voice typing tools categorized by platform in this awesome-style GitHub repo. Hope you all find this useful!

Can you explain how exactly dictation is used for development? I type about 120 WPM so typing is always going to be way faster for me than talking. Aside for accessibility, is dictation development for slower typers or is it more so you can relax on a couch while vibe coding? If this comes off as condescension it's not intended, I am genuinely out of the loop here.
