By the way, it would be great if you could also distribute custom services, processors, and transports via pip as plugins. That way, developers could use Pipecat more flexibly.

Just to make sure I understand, you're talking about the third-party integration, right? I've included a Packaging and Distribution section, where I say: - Consider releasing to PyPI for easier installation. pip installation pulls from PyPI, so you would be able to pip install a custom package; that's the idea.

[golbin]

Yes. For example, let’s say I’ve built my own LLM called g-llm or a service like openai-custom-service. I’d like to be able to package them so that others can simply run pip install g-llm or pip install openai-custom-service and then use them as plugins within Pipecat.

Another benefit of this approach is that if a plugin from another service has a bug or adds new features, we don’t need to wait for Pipecat itself to be modified or updated.

LGTM

I have made a couple of minor suggestions, but as it is now, it’s already a great starting point. 🎉
