The SDK works on model classes rather than native Alexa JSON requests and responses. These model classes are generated using the Request, Response JSON schemas from the developer docs. The source code for the model classes can be found here.
Sample that familiarizes you with the Alexa Skills Kit and AWS Lambda by allowing you to hear a response from Alexa when you trigger the sample.
Template for a basic fact skill. You’ll provide a list of interesting facts about a topic, Alexa will select a fact at random and tell it to the user when the skill is invoked.
Template for a parameter-based skill called 'Minecraft Helper'. When the user asks how to craft an item in the game Minecraft, the skill provides instructions.
Template for a trivia-style game with score keeping. Alexa asks the user multiple-choice questions and seeks a response. Correct and incorrect answers to questions are recorded.
Template for a basic quiz game skill. Alexa quizzes the user with facts from a list you provide.
Template for a local recommendations skill. Alexa uses the data that you provide to offer recommendations according to the user's stated preferences.
Sample skill that matches the user with a pet. Alexa prompts the user for the information it needs to determine a match. Once all of the required information is collected, the skill sends the data to an external web service that processes the data and returns the match.
Template for a basic high-low game skill. When the user guesses a number, Alexa tells the user whether the number she has in mind is higher or lower.
Template for a basic decision tree skill. Alexa asks the user a series of questions to get to a career suggestion.
Sample skill that shows how to request and access the configured address in the user’s device settings.
Project that demonstrates how to use the audio player for skills.
