Microsoft introduced a new Visual Studio Code extension named Prompty, which facilitates the integration of Large Language Models (LLMs) such as GPT-4 directly into .NET development processes. This complimentary extension is crafted to simplify the incorporation of AI capabilities into software applications. The formal announcement shares a real-life example highlighting how Prompty can be leveraged in practical scenarios.
Prompty is freely accessible on the Visual Studio Code Marketplace and provides .NET developers with a user-friendly interface to employ LLMs. Whether developers are building chatbots, crafting automated content, or augmenting other AI functionalities, Prompty serves as an effective tool for incorporating these features into current development settings.
Prompty has received acclaim for its innovative method of embedding AI within .NET development. Nevertheless, concerns about its accessibility have surfaced within the community. On LinkedIn, Jordi Gonzalez Segura voiced frustration that Prompty is unavailable for those using Visual Studio Professional.
Implementing Prompty in Visual Studio Code involves multiple steps:
Bruno Capuano, a principal cloud advocate at Microsoft, prepared a real-world use case demonstrating how Prompty can enhance a .NET WebAPI project. In this example, Prompty generates detailed weather forecast descriptions, transforming the standard output into richer and more engaging content. Developers can dynamically produce detailed weather summaries by defining prompts within a .prompty file and setting up the necessary configurations to interact with the LLM. This practical application leverages the Semantic Kernel to automate the generation of descriptive text, improving the quality and informativeness of the application’s output.
Additional information about Prompty, its features, and integration into development workflows can be found on the Prompty Visual Studio Code extension page or in the Prompty source code available on GitHub.
