  Stop Smoking - Time is running

Inspiration

I saw my friends and many other team mates who smoke daily limited cigarettes. But they can't and couldn't track their smoke. So to help someone to quit smoking by showing him/her consumption of tar/ nicotine/ time/ money might give some motivation to stop or at-least reduce the count.

What it does

It tells you count of cigarettes smoked and depending on the same give statistics of average tar and nicotine consumption. It can also tell average time and money spent on daily smoke.

How I built it

I built it using alexa sdk in node.js framework. I used basic intents and few java script functions.

Challenges I ran into

Handling State Management when I was passing intents from one another. That was difficult because even after emit :tell event session state maintained.

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

Building my idea to customer level usable state and thinking of making someone's life healthier.
