Setting up Amazon Alexa on Raspberry Pi

Alexa is a service provided by Amazon that allows you to interact with the voice service API (Application Programming Interface) using voice commands. Alexa is available in multiple languages and is used on millions of devices worldwide. It has been used in a variety of applications for productivity, entertainment, and even smart home control.

With Amazon Alexa, we can extend our Raspberry Pi’s functionality and usefulness with a simple microphone. You don’t need an expensive microphone to begin playing with Alexa and voice commands, but it can help with clarity. Experiment and find what works for your needs.
