Actions on Google: Interactive Canvas with Angular Sample

This is an Interactive Canvas sample which lets one browse and view video lectures by navigating with voice commands.

The frontend is built with Angular and shows how to build a Canvas action using Angular.

This Action benefits from a visually rich experience that allows you to provide video content combined with an intuitive conversational flow for users where existing visual components are not sufficient.

Running this Sample

• You can test your Action on any Google Assistant-enabled device on which the Assistant is signed into the same account used to create this project. Just say or type, “OK Google, talk to my test app”.
• You can also use the Actions on Google Console simulator to test most features and preview on-device behavior.

Using this Sample

• You can say navigate the lists by giving the ordinal of the item, ie. "First item" or "Give me the second".
