Vitamin Guide

Inspiration

It is important for children & adults to understand the vitamins and their uses. General knowledge about vitamins will raise awareness about the food we eat. If done properly, Children will think twice before eating junk food and will stop running from vegetables.

What it does

It is an Amazon Alexa skill which tells the user about different vitamins, their sources, and how our body utilizes them.

How I built it

I built it using the Alexa Presentation Language, and nodejs.

Challenges I ran into

APL is fairly new with very little documentation available. So it took some fiddling to get things right.

What I learned

I learned about vitamins and alexa presentation language.
