Enable push to talk functionality in Google Meet

What is Google Meet Push to Talk?
Google Meet Push to Talk is a Chrome extension that greatly enhances your audio management within Google Meet. With its easy-to-use interface, it enables users to adopt a push to talk system where your microphone is only active while you are holding down the spacebar. This approach ensures that your microphone is not live when not required, significantly reducing the chances of producing any feedback or disturbing noises, especially beneficial in larger meetings. The transparency of this extension's operation extends to its open-source code available publicly.
