Learn programming for Alexa devices, extend it to smart home devices and control the Raspberry Pi

The book is split into two parts: the first part covers creating Alexa skills and the second part, designing Internet of Things and Smart Home devices using a Raspberry Pi.

The first chapters describe the process of Alexa communication, opening an Amazon account and creating a skill for free. The operation of an Alexa skill and terminology such as utterances, intents, slots, and conversations are explained. Debugging your code, saving user data between sessions, S3 data storage and Dynamo DB database are discussed.

In-skill purchasing, enabling users to buy items for your skill as well as certification and publication is outlined. Creating skills using AWS Lambda and ASK CLI is covered, along with the Visual Studio code editor and local debugging. Also covered is the process of designing skills for visual displays and interactive touch designs using Alexa Presentation Language.

The second half of the book starts by creating a Raspberry Pi IoT 'thing' to control a robot from your Alexa device. This covers security issues and methods of sending and receiving MQTT messages between an Alexa device and the Raspberry Pi.

Creating a smart home device is described including forming a security profile, linking with Amazon, and writing a Lambda function that gets triggered by an Alexa skill. Device discovery and on/off control is demonstrated.

Next, readers discover how to control a smart home Raspberry Pi display from an Alexa skill using Simple Queue Service (SQS) messaging to switch the display on and off or change the color.

A node-RED design is discussed from the basic user interface right up to configuring MQTT nodes. MQTT messages sent from a user are displayed on a Raspberry Pi.

A chapter discusses sending a proactive notification such as a weather alert from a Raspberry Pi to an Alexa device. The book concludes by explaining how to create Raspberry Pi as a stand-alone Alexa device.

Flimsy and cheap screws
Screws snapped off when I tried to drill htem in and no matter how I try to get the leg pieces in they will NOT stay. Falls apart, screws snap off, the middle axle holes arent even lined up so you cant install one of the pieces in the first place.

Easy to assemble. Works well. Looks nice.
Color: Light Grey, Color: Light Grey
Works for what we need. Easy to put together. Diagram provided was clear. One of the lil screws didn't fit perfectly, but it works well enough. Came with all the lil tools you need to assemble. Product frame is sturdy and hardware (seems heavy duty enough, metal and not plastic) all fits together very nicely. Would buy again if i need another one.

Great value!
Color: Light Grey
I purchased this for a divider in the sanctuary of our church. Making a private prayer corner.. It is way better than expected. Follow direction . When you make the "M" shape put close together. I had the letter tops to far apart and it complicated things. Otherwise it was awesome. Would definitely buy another one if needed

NO DELIVERY DO THEY EVEN HAVE THE PRODUCT TO SELL??
Size: 5 Panels, Color: Grey
There is a problem with the Seller delivering on the products sold. Or someone is selling on behalf of the seller and not being able to deliver. Purchased 3-part panels used no problem, and are nice, but we also needed the 5-panel divider. which has been promised twice for delivery and NOT delivered without explanation. We'll have to send the other back as we'll need something that match.
