+## Quickstart
+
+### Basic Agent - Python
+
+Create a simple Azure Responses Agent that writes a haiku about the Microsoft Agent Framework
+
+```python
+import asyncio
+from agent_framework.azure import AzureOpenAIResponsesClient
+from azure.identity import AzureCliCredential
+
+async def main():
+ # Initialize a chat agent with basic instructions
+ agent = AzureOpenAIResponsesClient(credential=AzureCliCredential()).create_agent(
+ name="HaikuBot",
+ instructions="You are an upbeat assistant that writes beautifully.",
+ )
+
+ print(await agent.run("Write a haiku about Microsoft Agent Framework."))
+
+asyncio.run(main())
+```
+
+### Basic Agent - .NET
+
+```c#
+using System;
+using Azure.AI.OpenAI;
+using Azure.Identity;
+using Microsoft.Agents.AI;
+
+var endpoint = Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("AZURE_OPENAI_ENDPOINT")!;
+var deploymentName = Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("AZURE_OPENAI_DEPLOYMENT_NAME")!;
+
+var agent = new AzureOpenAIClient(new Uri(endpoint), new AzureCliCredential())
+ .GetOpenAIResponseClient(deploymentName)
+ .CreateAIAgent(name: "HaikuBot", instructions: "You are an upbeat assistant that writes beautifully.");
+
+Console.WriteLine(await agent.RunAsync("Write a haiku about Microsoft Agent Framework."));
+```
