Make Voice Skill Support More Categories

What are categories supported by a voice skill?

A voice skill is designed to support multiple device categories. The categories are the device classification defined on different voice platforms, for example, lights, sockets, and home appliances. To activate a certain category, a voice skill must be developed, tested, and reviewed. Finally, users can control a device of this category by using the voice skill. Otherwise, the voice skill does not support this category.
