Description

Now is the time to Become an expert Alexa Skill developer. This course offers high value, exclusive, professional-grade content. It all starts with setting up a foundation to quickly build and iterate on complex, premium, professional Alexa Skills. The Extreme Alexa Skills Development Series is for individuals who want to learn the secrets of quickly building professional-level Alexa Skills. This course focuses on building custom starter templates and automated infrastructure and workflow. This course is ideal for students who are ready to take their Alexa skills to the next level.

The course quickly ramps up as you immediately start creating a custom Alexa Skill template from scratch, using TypeScript. You start with zero code, and build out the template step-by-step. You add reusable constructs that speed up and simplify adding advanced functionality such as output speech variation, attribute syncing and handling, managing run time state, managing in-skill products, and more.

After you learn how to build a custom template from scratch, you jump into automating the infrastructure that powers the Alexa Skill. You will learn how to quickly add a complete back-end for the Alexa Skill, including the lambda function, a dedicated website and CDN, and advanced security. Once you have this infrastructure setup, you can create new skills based on the template and infrastructure within minutes.

Finally, you learn how to pull all of the pieces together to create a powerhouse template that combines boilerplate skill code as well as a completely scripted automated infrastructure. You see first-hand how to completely automate the skill development workflow, all with zero console configuration.
