|
## 📋 Getting Started
|
|
|
|
**Quick Installation:**
|
|
|
|
- **Python**: `pip install agent-framework`
|
|
- **.NET**: `dotnet add package Microsoft.Agents.AI`
|
|
|
|
**Getting started documentation:**
|
|
|
|
- **[Quick Start Guide](https://learn.microsoft.com/agent-framework/tutorials/quick-start)** - Simple getting started instructions

|
|
- **Observability**: Built-in OpenTelemetry integration for distributed tracing, monitoring, and debugging
|
|
- [Python observability](./python/samples/getting_started/workflow/observability/) | [.NET telemetry](./dotnet/samples/GettingStarted/AgentOpenTelemetry/)
|
|
- **Multiple Agent Provider Support**: Support for various LLM providers with more being added continuously
|
|
- [Python examples](./python/samples/getting_started/agents/) | [.NET examples](./dotnet/samples/GettingStarted/AgentProviders/)
|
|
- **Middleware**: Flexible middleware system for request/response processing, exception handling, and custom pipelines
