The sample code in this repository is for use in hands-on exercises in Microsoft Learn modules.
The exercises are designed to be completed in Visual Studio Online. To complete the labs, you'll need the following:
- A Microsoft Azure subscription. If you don't already have one, you can sign up for a free trial at https://azure.microsoft.com.
- A Visual Studio Codespace based on the MicrosoftDocs/ai-fundamentals code repository. This provides a hosted instance of Visual Studio Code, in which you'll be able to run the notebooks for the lab exercises.
To set up a Visual Studio Codespace:
- Open Visual Studio Online in a new browser tab; and if prompted, sign in using the Microsoft account associated with your Azure subscription.
- If you don't already have a Visual Studio Codespaces billing plan, create one. Then create a codespace with the following settings:
- Codespace Name: A name for your codespace - for example, ai-fundamentals.
- Git Repository: MicrosoftDocs/ai-fundamentals
- Instance Type: Standard (Linux) 4 cores, 8GB RAM
- Suspend idle Codespace after: 30 minutes
- Wait for the codespace to be created. This will take around 3 minutes. You'll see the following things happen:
- A script will initialize and configure your codespace.
- A list of notebook (.ipynb) files will appear in the pane on the left.
- After setup is complete, you can close the Welcome and Creation log panes. You can also change the color scheme to suit your preference - just click the ⚙ icon at the bottom left and select a new Color Theme. A light color theme is recommended to make it easier to read the Python code in the notebooks.
