Good morning, fellow Alexa Skill Builders! This year has been a groundbreaking year for the Alexa platform. New APIs, region and language support, and devices were released this year, opening up Amazon voice control to a whole new landscape.
Here at Alexa Skills Tutorials, we are always on the lookout for code samples and repositories that can help fellow developers find inspiration from. Listed below are a small collection of GitHub accounts and repositories that you may find useful or interesting. Enjoy!
DabbleLab – a great resource for beginner and advanced Alexa video tutorials. Their GitHub account has a lot of templates for those of us keeping up with new APIs and features.
Packt – Packt Publishing has released a few books and courses that can help the beginner explore the API and browse code samples.
Alexa Cookbook – an official repository for Alexa Skills given in a cookbook format. Each recipe can help demonstrate some of the more advanced features that the Alexa platform offers along with some helpful guidance.
Alexa London Travel – this Alexa Skill was developed in C#, which is an interesting take on developing using a language other than JavaScript (Node.js), Python, or Java.
alexaDateConverter – this Github repo looks promising for those of us who deal with dates in Alexa Skill development.
alexa-labs – this Github organization has a lot of interesting applications for Alexa, including robotics control, hackathon materials, Twitch follow-along code, and much more!
