Deep Dive: Microsoft Agent Framework with .NET
Go beyond the basics of the Microsoft Agent Framework and learn how to build, observe and deploy AI agents from scratch. Explore state and memory, RAG, tool calling, MCP and more. Leave with a working agent and the practical knowledge to take it into your own .NET applications.
Deep Dive: Microsoft Agent Framework with .NET
Description
In this workshop, you'll learn the nuts and bolts of the Microsoft Agent Framework: from the core APIs to advanced topics like compaction, observability, and deployment.
Target Audience
Primary: professional or amateur developers who want to build agents using MAF and .NET
Secondary: software architects who want to evaluate how MAF fits into a .NET system
Technologies
- Microsoft Agent Framework
- .NET
- C#
- Visual Studio / Visual Studio Code
