Alexa Cookbook - Recipes and Ingredients

Welcome!

These projects are individual tutorials that show you the simplest way to add a new features to your Alexa skill. Let's assume we are a chef, with an idea for a fancy new recipe. The recipe will require one or more ingredients to be combined to create the finished product. Alexa skills follow the same model. Basic ingredients can be added together to create a robust skill.

Before starting

The lessons assume you have built a skill with the Alexa Skills Kit .

If you are new to Alexa, first complete the Decision Tree tutorial.

  • Recommend having Node.JS available on your command prompt and become familiar with NPM, the Node Package Manager
  • Recommend having GIT available on your command prompt
  • Review the alexa-sdk documentation
Ready to get cooking?

Choose a recipe below and follow the tutorial steps to create and enhance a new skill.

Recipe 1 State Pop

We start with a basic skill that plays a welcome message, responds to Help and Stop; and listens for you to say the name of a US State We will then add a feature to let you tell the skill your name, which is stored and repeated when you end your conversation. Finally, we will add helper functions to look up and report on the Population of each state, using data from a file or from a REST API call.
