Gameshelf is a Rails-based web application that allows users to track the board games they own. In addition to its web interface, Gameshelf utilizes a custom Amazon Alexa Skill (linked above) that allows users to ask an Amazon Echo, Tap, or Dot for a random game based on the number of players they have.
- Anonymous users can view the site's privacy policy
- Anonymous users can login through the Devise gem, login with Amazon, or sign up
- Authenticated users can enter in how many players they have, and receive a random game from their list
- Authenticated users can search for games, and add them to their list
- Authenticated users can delete games from their list
- Users can link their Gameshelf (if account was created with Amazon) to the custom Alexa Skill
- Users can say, 'Alexa ask Game Shelf to find a four player game' to receive a random game
- Users can say, 'Alexa open Game Shelf', to start a dialog with Alexa where she will ask users how many players they have before returning a random game.
