#### Alexa skills
Skills are like apps for Alexa. You can already choose from thousands of
skills to make Alexa to fit your lifestyle, from ordering a pizza to
requesting a ride in the [skills section of the Alexa
app](https://alexa.amazon.com/spa/index.html#skills/?ref-suffix=nav_nav).
#### Skill Blueprints
In Skill Blueprints, you can use templates to create your own personal
Alexa skill in minutes. Using blueprints, you can create custom games,
unique stories, or household lists. For example, you can write a trivia
skill about your family and say, "Alexa, open My Family Trivia" to play
it whenever you like.
To figure out what kind of skill you'd like to make, [browse
blueprints](/home) in the following categories:
- Fun & Games
- At Home
- Storyteller
- Learning & Knowledge
#### Tip:
There's no limit to the amount of skills you can make, so create as many
as you like.
#### How it works
The following video shows how easy it is to create a skill using
blueprints.
