How to Create an Alexa Skill: Part 2 - Lambda Function

Create an Alexa Skill before the new year! In this skill, we'll be retrieving data about different reindeer depending on what the user asks for. This draws on the last video (https://youtu.be/d12DhlFVERc) where we created the speech interface (sample utterances & intents) for the skill. In this part, we'll finish the skill by creating a lambda function that will generate the Echo's response depending on the user's utterances (intent). Thank you for watching!
