Recommendations for handwriting text recognition (OCR)

Hi! I'm looking for a FOSS app or software that can recognize text based on a photo of my handwriting.

Any suggestions?

I've always used Tesseract to get text from scanned documents. It might work for you if you don't write in cursive.
The term you might want to look for is "Optical Character Recognition" (OCR for short) and there are many programming libraries that you can use for languages like JavaScript (NodeJS) and Python.

Not sure of any complete software packages though.
