Echo Show: anyone writing skills?
Would really like my show to show NOAA radar, would be handy on the road, e.g., https://radar.weather.gov/ridge/lite/NCR/GWX_loop.gif.

i took a quick glance at the tutorial site
the writing AKA 'programing' uses Python
Python is a scripting language i dabbled in a little bit about 6 or 7 years ago
and nothing since then
you have to think in logical progressive steps (like almost all programing)
its not like writing a recipe or directions
i did not dig deep, into the 'skills' writing
but seems more oriented toward controlling home functions, lights etc, via echo controlled modules and fetching info stored for alexa, dates, appointments, music from amazon
than grabbing random webpage data you might want to see
like i said i did not dig deep, and might have the wrong perception
