AI Agents for Beginners is an open-source Microsoft course designed to teach the foundations of building AI agents. The repository organizes the subject into progressive lessons covering agent concepts, design patterns, tools, orchestration, memory, planning, multi-agent systems, and practical implementation, making it suitable for developers who want a structured introduction rather than a single framework or product.

The course includes code samples, exercises, and multilingual learning materials so readers can move from concepts to working implementations. It is primarily an educational resource for learning how modern agentic applications are designed and built, and it can be used for self-study, workshops, or as a reference when experimenting with agent frameworks and generative AI services.
