Inspiration
We followed the HackPSU Alexa challenge to create a classroom tool for Alexa.
What it does
We created a set of vocabulary words from the infrastructure security workshop to teach.
How we built it
We based it on the quiz game alexa skill template/sample. This code already existed on github and we accessed it through creating an AWS account. To create the skill, we had to log into the AWS account and define terms and definitions, and speech for the skills. The lambda function is the code that is associated with your skill. An index.js file gets changed to contain skill info. The skill has an id, and it gets attached to the lambda function. There's an ARN on the lambda function that gets connected to the skill.
Challenges we ran into
Lack of time.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
Learning how to use AWS.
