I coded all of the android app myself. This was a really cool experience because I got to learn how to do persistent storage and list views. These are two topics I've been avoiding in personal projects because of their difficulty (And they're just as hard as I thought they'd be)

I worked on creating the stdlib and connecting/configuring the Amazon Echo with the stdlib

Austin Rye
I designed and implemented the Echo interface using stdlib, and I wrote the documentation.

Daniel Shifman
I worked on integrating the Amazon Echo with the StdLib. I also worked on finding a way to translate the information from the Echo to the app we designed. I also provided moral support and filled in gaps when the others required sleep, as they did for me.
