Agent Framework Dev Project
The Agent Framework Dev Project is a community initiative providing materials for instructor-led, hands-on, developer-focused training for building AI agents using modern frameworks and tooling.
Our current lab and presentation materials focus on instructor-led lab material for Agent Framework Dev Days with labs, decks, and supporting assets. Some of our current choices:
- Using Microsoft Agent Framework (open source, released Oct 2025) for building AI Agents
- Using Microsoft Foundry platform for running AI Agents with observability, safety, and other enterprise-grade features
- Applying practical agent architectures, tools, and workflows, including human-in-the-loop
- Applying useful real-world patterns for building, evaluating, and operating AI agents
