Let’s Build an Alexa Voice Skill Together
It’s shaping up to be a big year for both Amazon Echo and Google Home devices – and the software skills that come with them! Luckily, Amazon makes it pretty simple to jump in and create your own skill that you can activate with your voice.
At this interactive event, we’ll demonstrate how to get started with creating an Amazon Alexa voice skill using Glitch, an online development environment. Then, we’ll break into groups to create versions of our own skills. We will have Amazon Echo hardware at the event so we can present our new skills at the end of the night!
Join us on Monday, February 12th at 6:30pm at The Forge (Pillar Technology). Please RSVP on Eventbrite so we have a total count for food and drinks!
