Now that we have done the console setup, we can build the Lambda that will handle the logic behind the skill.
Start by creating a new folder in your lambdas folder, naming it something appropriate, such as carHelper. Inside, we need to create an index.js file and run npm init. We are using alexa-sdk again so we need to run npm install --save alexa-sdk.
With the setup ready, we can start writing the Lambda. We can start with a Lambda that looks very similar to the Lambda we created in our first function:
const Alexa = require('alexa-sdk');
exports.handler = Alexa.SkillBuilders.custom()
.addRequestHandlers()
.lambda();
The first handler we are going to create is to handle a launch request. This is when a user says something like "Alexa start car helper"; our skill is launched but no intent is triggered. We need to help them trigger one...
