So my girlfriend has an Alexa and really likes it but I’m not comfortable living in a house with one. How much technical knowledge would I need to make a speaker that connects to a music player app and is voice activated because that is all she uses it for.

I figure I could hook up a raspberry pi to a speaker and add a mic and voice command software that I find somewhere but I’ve never actually done anything like this before.

How feasible is this

    Specifically for this application, Picroft. It sounds like it might be exactly what they’re looking for. Here is the why-use section. It would be interesting to hear from anybody currently using it.
