Autocode free limit not enough for Alexa Radio and Alexa Video
The excellent self-build skills https://github.com/balsimpson/alexa-radio and https://github.com/NovaGL/alexa-video use Autocode. Unfortunately, Autocode's free service of 1000 requests doesn't last very long, a matter of days. To upgrade it's $20/month, which isn't worth it for me. Anybody clever enough to know of a free Autocode alternative and re-write the code?

When Alexa won't stop, use sleep
I mostly use three skills to play radio and watch TV. https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B09RKCN3CN, https://github.com/balsimpson/alexa-radio, https://github.com/NovaGL/alexa-video. I tried calling stations with other better known apps, station starts playing but it still wouldn't stop.

Possible to extend bluetooth vinyl player to group?
Looks like one can't use https://github.com/balsimpson/alexa-radio as it's a local http address. You can use a gist to convert a WAN address from http to https but not a LAN address. If anybody knows a way, please post?

Why do some Alexa devices work to play a local radio station and not others?
Or build your own, https://github.com/balsimpson/alexa-radio, and add the stream url's you can find on https://www.radio-browser.info/search?page=1&order=clickcount&reverse=true&hidebroken=true&name=maine. As always, easier to use routines.

How to play BBC World Service Live on Echo (in USA, if it matters)
As an alternative to Tunein, just in case. Build your own skill, https://github.com/balsimpson/alexa-radio, and add this stream, https://stream.live.vc.bbcmedia.co.uk/bbc_world_service.

Broadcast news feed to multi-room setup?
I don't know how to hand-off to another echo. What I do is start playing something on a speaker group then shout out the news station I want to listen to. Unfortunately, the speaker group can only do audio, not video. So although I can play video (BBC, CNN, Sky, etc.) using the video skill, https://github.com/NovaGL/alexa-video, on a single Echo Show, I have to ask the radio skill, https://github.com/balsimpson/alexa-radio, to play the TV channel to get audio playing on all the devices (echos and dots) in the rooms I will be in.

Replacing an FM Radio with an Alexa Device - Questions
You have to install https://github.com/balsimpson/alexa-radio as your own radio skill. Get your mug of tea and read it slowly, will take you 20mins max. Very good instructions. Then add the stream and label it "W FAN" or whatever you desire. So you shout, "Alexa, ask radio to play W FAN". I've just done it and it works fine. It is geo-blocked but I use a smartdns on my router. As suggested, use a routine to call it, "Alexa, play W FAN".

Play a Custom MP3 in Routine?
You can build your own skill, https://github.com/balsimpson/alexa-radio, and create a 'station' with the https url of the mp3.

What skill/app will allow me to listen to Canadian campus radio?
At the bottom of https://github.com/balsimpson/alexa-radio note the message about having to use gists with http links. I just used a gist for the CJSR http link, https://www.radio-browser.info/#/history/961a1782-0601-11e8-ae97-52543be04c81, and it worked fine.

I made a web app for creating custom meal plans faster: calories-in.com
If you're just starting you dev journey out I wholeheartedly recommend: launchschool.com It will give you a rock solid foundation for JavaScript and the DOM API. Making a good web app it's not just about React. I'm telling that from experience. You should know the DOM API, CSS, HTML and various web idioms. These are some good and free resources for the above: https://javascript.info/ https://developers.google.com/web/fundamentals https://web.dev/ Once you've read the fundamental stuff you continue learning more about React: https://reactjs.org/docs/getting-started.html https://epicreact.dev/ https://overreacted.io/
