Microsoft Semantic Kernel

Microsoft Semantic Kernel is a "lighweight, open-source development kit" to build AI agents and integrate models into C#,  Python and Java code.

When you load up SK into a fresh Visual Studio Code (no extensions) it will prompt to install recommended extensions. These will include:

  • ESLint - integrates ESLint JavaScript into VS Code (for static analysis)
  • Prettier - integrates Prettier, the opinionated code formatter (for JavaScript, TypeScript and other webby stuff)
  • Azure Functions - to quickly manage serverless apps directly from VS Code
  • vscode-pdf - to display pdf files in VSCode (required to open PDF code maps for .NET and Python)
