Superheroes

Superheroes Alexa Skill

An Alexa skill for the Amazon Echo. It reveals superheroes identities using the Comic Vine API.

Example phrases:

• Alexa, ask Superheroes who Batman is.

• Alexa, ask Superheroes do you know what Spider-man's real identity is?

• Alexa, ask Superheroes what is Mystique's real name?

How it works

The project is written in ES2015 and compiled to ES5 compatible JavaScript so that it can run on AWS Lambda. It reacts to voice intents sent from the Amazon Alexa Skills Kit, calls the Comic Vine API, builds a voice response and sends it back to the Echo.
