Initial Thoughts

Although I've been busy studying for finals and have had little time to really begin my summer project, I have been thinking about a few initial to-dos.

Luckily, Amazon has made it very easy to create new open source skills! One article I began to read was this one, which is a general overview on starting to create a new skill for the Amazon Echo.

I've also been doing more research into the recipe database I'll be integrating for my skill. Luckily, there seems to be a lot of options (see the first response on this forum). I'll need to take a look closely at each one but http://www.therecipedepository.com/ and http://www.epicurious.com/ both seem straight forward and simple enough to scrape and parse through initially.

That's all I've looked into for now but I'm excited to continue working on this project in the next few weeks.
