Inspiration

Cryptocurrencies are the current rage. So why not make an Alexa skill through which you can keep track of the ones you own. Just use your voice and you'll get to know how they are doing.

What it does

Crypto Manager is a Crypto-Currency portfolio manager which will help you keep track of all the different cryptocurrencies in your portfolio through Amazon Alexa. Crypto Manager supports 1000+ cryptocurrencies in various global fiat currencies. You can use Crypto Manager to get the real-time information and to manage your cryptocurrency portfolio. You can Add/Update/Delete coins from your portfolio. You can get the real-time value of your portfolio in US dollars as well as alternate fiat currencies like pound, rupees, euro, yen etc. You will also be informed of the change in the value of your portfolio since the last time you checked.

How I built it

I built it using nodeJS and AWS Dynamo-DB.

Challenges I ran into

Using state handlers and making asynchronous API calls for the first time were my biggest challenge in this project.

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

Came out of this hackathon with another skill I myself use.

What I learned

Making asynchronous API calls.

What's next for Crypto Manager

In future updates, I'll try to link Crypto Manager with various public exchanges and integrate them in the Alexa skill for a more seamless experience.
