In essence, this script creates a full-featured local desktop utility to:
- Transcribe an audio file into individual words.
- Display and interact with each word’s start and end positions on a timeline or within the "Review Dashboard."
- Adjust timing offsets for the beginning and end of each word either globally or individually.
- Play full audio or specific words directly from within the app.
- Export words as separate `.wav` audio files.
