How to Setup Alexa on Raspberry Pi - L3-37 Solo: A Star Wars Story

EDIT 1: Literally THE DAY AFTER I released this video there was a new Raspian release. They will now prompt you for your Wifi Info on boot, which makes it easier.
For the autorun. There will be no dialog terminal. The autorun runs in the background. A easy way to get some feedback is to add an LED going HIGH when L3 is in her Idle state. You can do this with the UIManager.cpp file.

EDIT2: I have to stop tech support on this one. There are way too many unique issues popping up that I can't replicate. Scroll through the comments, a lot of issues were resolved, some were not. All in all I think this tutorial works for about 80% of people. Sorry to the 20%, but I'm not an expert on this stuff, just a hobbyist who likes star wars.

This tutorial shows how to setup a Raspberry Pi 3 to run Amazon Voice Services Alexa just like in my L3-37 from Solo: A Star Wars Story.

It also goes through steps to customize and create your own Jarvis-like voice assistant!
