I created a simple Alexa skill that tells a user if an item can be composted.... I wanted to extend this functionality into a "bolt on" Alexa skill for the Smart Compost System. The Alexa skill would integrate with the Smart Compost data to tell the user recommendations specific to his/her needed. For example, if the oxygen flow was too high (not enough carbon), then the user would be directed to add items like grass clippings, leaves, newspapers instead of fruit or vegetable scraps.

Video below is a demo of the skill...
