Build your kernel

This module introduces the Semantic Kernel SDK. Learn how the kernel connects code to large language models to extend functionality with generative artificial intelligence.

• What is semantic kernel
• Why use semantic kernel
• How to build your kernel
• Exercise - Build a kernel object

Run prompts with Semantic Kernel

This module explores Semantic Kernel SDK plugins. Learn how plugins to the SDK are used to accomplish customized tasks and create intelligent applications.

• Optimize language model prompts
• Use semantic kernel prompt templates
• Use Handlebars prompt templates
• Store chat history
• Exercise - Run Semantic Kernel prompts

Create Semantic Kernel plugins

This module explores native functions in the Semantic Kernel SDK. Learn how native functions can accomplish customized tasks, effectively giving your AI agent a "skill."

• Understand native plugins
• Configure function choices
• Exercise - Create Semantic Kernel plugins

Apply filters on functions

This module demonstrates how to combine functions and prompts with the Semantic Kernel SDK. Nesting functions within prompts can allow your code to complete tasks large language models can't typically complete on their own.

• Understand prompt injections
• Filter invoked functions
• Exercise - Apply Semantic Kernel function filters

Guided project - Create a DevOps Assistant with the Semantic Kernel SDK

This module guides you through the steps required to develop a proof-of-concept AI DevOps assistant with the Semantic Kernel SDK.

• Exercise - Create a DevOps Assistant with the Semantic Kernel SDK
