Built a node starter kit for Alexa

Hi!I wanted to boost up custom skill development speed, so I made a starter kit for Alexa.Generates intent schema, utterances, value slots while coding. It writes them to files that are separated by skill name, so all that developer has to do is to copy-paste generated config to Amazon Developer Console when setting up new skill.No need to setup/edit server code. All skills are kept in a folder and server code reads and uses them to initialize intents.Development is being done locally using Express server and nodemon. Localhost is exposed to web using ngrok. Server restarts everytime the code is changed. In this way all changes to intent responses can be tested immediately.Supports deploying to AWS LambdaSo please take a look and give your feedback: http://ift.tt/2okp1r3!
