Quickly Create, Build, and Deploy Amazon Alexa Skills from AWS
AWS CodeStar now lets you automatically create a new Alexa Skill from within your Amazon Web Services (AWS) account. Previously, you needed to create the skill in the Alexa Skill console and link it with an AWS Lambda function in your AWS account. You would also need to manually register changes any time you updated your skill. These manual steps are no longer needed if you develop your Alexa Skills with CodeStar. To get started with Alexa skill templates on AWS CodeStar, go to our getting started guide to follow step by step instructions.
