Summary

In this tutorial, learn how to create a Chrome extension that captures browser tab audio and transcribes it using Deepgram. The process involves creating a manifest file, adding permissions for the extension, creating a popup with buttons for starting and stopping transcription, connecting to Deepgram via WebSocket, passing data from content script to popup, and finally, creating an options page for users to enter their Deepgram API Key. Additionally, learn how to access both browser tab audio and microphone for transcribing video calls. The full code for this project is available on GitHub at deepgram-devs/transcription-chrome-extension.
