Choose TTS if…
- TTS is primarily Python; vit.cpp is C++.
- License: TTS is MPL-2.0, vit.cpp is MIT.
- Tags unique to TTS: deep-learning, glow-tts, hifigan, melgan.
- TTS ships Docker support for self-hosted deployment.
When NOT to use TTS
- Last GitHub push was 694 days ago (dormant maintenance, Aug 16, 2024). Validate activity before betting a new project on TTS.
