# Get Started with Semantic Kernel ⚡
|
||||
|
||||
> [!IMPORTANT]
|
||||
> Semantic Kernel is now [Microsoft Agent Framework](https://github.com/microsoft/agent-framework)! Microsoft Agent Framework (MAF) is the enterprise‑ready successor to Semantic Kernel. Microsoft Agent Framework is now available at version 1.0 as a production-ready release: stable APIs, and a commitment to long-term support. Whether you're building a single assistant or orchestrating a fleet of specialized agents, Microsoft Agent Framework 1.0 gives you enterprise-grade multi-agent orchestration, multi-provider model support, and cross-runtime interoperability via A2A and MCP.

> Learn more about Semantic Kernel and Agent Framework here: [Semantic Kernel and Microsoft Agent Framework on the Agent Framework blog](https://devblogs.microsoft.com/agent-framework/semantic-kernel-and-microsoft-agent-framework/), and try out the [Semantic Kernel migration guide](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/agent-framework/migration-guide/from-semantic-kernel).

|
||||
## OpenAI / Azure OpenAI API keys
|
||||
|
||||
To run the LLM prompts and semantic functions in the examples below, make sure
|
||||
you have an
|
||||
|
||||
- [Azure OpenAI Service Key](https://learn.microsoft.com/azure/cognitive-services/openai/quickstart?pivots=rest-api) or
|
||||
- [OpenAI API Key](https://platform.openai.com).
|
||||
|
||||
## Nuget package
|
||||
|
||||
Here is a quick example of how to use Semantic Kernel from a C# console app.
|
||||
First, let's create a new project, targeting .NET 6 or newer, and add the
|
||||
`Microsoft.SemanticKernel` nuget package to your project from the command prompt
|
||||
in Visual Studio:
|
||||
|
||||
dotnet add package Microsoft.SemanticKernel
|
||||
|
||||
# Running prompts with input parameters
|
||||
|
||||
Copy and paste the following code into your project, with your Azure OpenAI key in hand:
|
||||
|
||||
```csharp
|
||||
using Microsoft.SemanticKernel;
|
||||
using Microsoft.SemanticKernel.Connectors.OpenAI;
|
||||
|
||||
var builder = Kernel.CreateBuilder();
|
||||
|
||||
builder.AddAzureOpenAIChatCompletion(
|
||||
"gpt-35-turbo", // Azure OpenAI Deployment Name
|
||||
"https://contoso.openai.azure.com/", // Azure OpenAI Endpoint
|
||||
"...your Azure OpenAI Key..."); // Azure OpenAI Key
|
||||
|
||||
// Alternative using OpenAI
|
||||
//builder.AddOpenAIChatCompletion(
|
||||
// "gpt-3.5-turbo", // OpenAI Model name
|
||||
// "...your OpenAI API Key..."); // OpenAI API Key
|
||||
|
||||
var kernel = builder.Build();
|
||||
|
||||
var prompt = @"{{$input}}
|
||||
|
||||
One line TLDR with the fewest words.";
|
||||
|
||||
var summarize = kernel.CreateFunctionFromPrompt(prompt, executionSettings: new OpenAIPromptExecutionSettings { MaxTokens = 100 });
|
||||
|
||||
string text1 = @"
|
||||
1st Law of Thermodynamics - Energy cannot be created or destroyed.
|
||||
2nd Law of Thermodynamics - For a spontaneous process, the entropy of the universe increases.
|
||||
3rd Law of Thermodynamics - A perfect crystal at zero Kelvin has zero entropy.";
|
||||
|
||||
string text2 = @"
|
||||
1. An object at rest remains at rest, and an object in motion remains in motion at constant speed and in a straight line unless acted on by an unbalanced force.
|
||||
2. The acceleration of an object depends on the mass of the object and the amount of force applied.
|
||||
3. Whenever one object exerts a force on another object, the second object exerts an equal and opposite on the first.";
|
||||
|
||||
Console.WriteLine(await kernel.InvokeAsync(summarize, new() { ["input"] = text1 }));
|
||||
|
||||
Console.WriteLine(await kernel.InvokeAsync(summarize, new() { ["input"] = text2 }));
|
||||
|
||||
// Output:
|
||||
// Energy conserved, entropy increases, zero entropy at 0K.
|
||||
// Objects move in response to forces.
|
||||
```
