Inspiration

Recently, I got a Google Home Mini. I was eager to be able to use voice assistant features in order to effectively control my smart home devices, but was disappointed to find that there were limitations to the complexity of a command, and that creating commands using IFTTT was a needlessly long and complex process. We strive to fix this using our hack.

What it does

It allows the Google Assistant to process verbal IFTTT commands, and act upon them when the conditions are met.

Challenges we ran into

We currently lack the complete extent of coding knowledge to create a working prototype

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We were determined to finish this despite an unexpected Wi-Fi disruption through effective improvisation. ;)

What we learned

Due to the CockroachDB workshop at our hackathon, we were informed of the various working parts that must be created in order for a successful end product.
