<p>Amazon has released <a href="https://echosim.io/">Echosim</a>, a website that simulates the Alexa service in your browser. That way it is easy to test your skills without having access to a physical Amazon Echo.</p>

<p>If you just want to be able to turn anything with a switch (like lights, switches, media players, etc) on and off, check out Michael Auchter’s <a href="https://github.com/auchter/haaska">Haaska</a> which integrates the <a href="https://developer.amazon.com/public/binaries/content/assets/html/alexa-lighting-api.html">Alexa Lighting API</a> into Home Assistant.</p>

<p>The built-in Alexa component allows you to integrate Home Assistant into Alexa/Amazon Echo. This component will allow you to query information and call services within Home Assistant by using your voice. Home Assistant offers no built-in sentences but offers a framework for you to define your own.</p>

<p>Then, wherever you would but some simple text for a response like<code class="highlighter-rouge">OK</code>, replace it with a reference to the file so that:</p>
<div class="highlighter-rouge"><pre class="highlight"><code>text: OK
</code></pre>
</div>
<p>becomes:</p>
<pre><code>text: !include alexa_confirm.yaml
<div class="highlighter-rouge"><pre class="highlight"><code>text: !include alexa_confirm.yaml
</code></pre>
</div>
<p>Alexa will now respond with a random phrase each time. You can use the include for as many different intents as you like so you only need to create the list once.</p>
