## Choose when

### Choose XZVoice if…

- XZVoice is primarily Vue; datasets is Python.
- Tags unique to XZVoice: electron, text-to-speech, tts, vue.
- Leaner open-issue backlog (27).

### Choose datasets if…

- datasets is primarily Python; XZVoice is Vue.
- Tags unique to datasets: dataset-hub, deep-learning, llm, ai.
- Also covers LLM Frameworks, Model Training.

## When NOT to use XZVoice

- Last GitHub push was 1306 days ago (dormant maintenance, Dec 14, 2022). Validate activity before betting a new project on XZVoice.

## When NOT to use datasets

- LLM Frameworks: Avoid a framework for a single prompt-and-retrieve call; the abstraction can cost more than it saves.
- Model Training: Try prompting and RAG first; fine-tuning is the answer to style/format, not missing knowledge.
