This repository (https://github.com/MrCrunsh/CortanaSkillsLab) is built as a learning environment to understand the basics of developing Cortana Skills with the Microsoft Bot Framework and Cortana Skill Set.
I assume that the running platform is a Raspberry Pi. You can also deploy this environment on an Azure BotService. After setting this up you are able to control the GPIOs of your Raspberry Pi with Cortana.
All technologies are preview versions. It may be that some services are not available in your country.

- To run Cortana Skills on a Windows computer, the device must be set to the United States region. For Germany, you can run Cortana on your Android smartphone by downloading the APK here: apkmirror.com.
To start this learning workshop, go to Wiki page.
This repository includes labs on:
- Visual Studio Code
- Visual Studio Community
- Visual Studio Dev Essentials
- Bot Framework Emulator
- Bot Builder SDK for Node.js (Quickstart)
- Azure Bot Service (Quickstart)
My Bio:
I‘m working for Microsoft Germany GmbH as a CSE Audience Marketing Manager and I am the regional lead for Team North in the German StudentPartners program. I’m addicted to student and adult education and I provide a mixture of good knowledge, combined with best practice in the fields of IoT and open source technologies (e.g. Angular, Symphony/Laravel). As a Microsoft Certified Trainer, I also regularly provide training in the developer area and thus tries to promote the "offspring".
