I downloaded Python from the python.org web site

I installed Python 3.12.4 for macOS

I ran the Install Certificates script

I downloaded Visual Studio Code (the Apple silicon build)

I installed the Prompt flow VS Code extension

I opened a folder and ran the Python: Create Environment command.

I created a .venv environment in the project's folder

I selected the Prompt flow extension (the "P" logo) and clicked the QUICK ACCESS | Install dependencies menu item

I used source .venv/bin/activate to activate the environmentI used pip install promptflow to add the promptflow dependencies

I ran pf -v to see what version of Prompt flow was installed

I clicked on FLOWS and navigated to the included standard_flowI ensured that the .venv virtual environment was selected and entered a text default value "Hello World"

I clicked the Test menu item to run the standard_flowThe default text value was added to the "Prompt:" and "Write a simple {{text}} program that displays the greeting message." text

The "Prompt: " text is included in the hello.py source code

The flow.dag.yaml file describes the flow

The hello.jinja2 template contains the "Write a simple {{text}}..." text

I generated a new Open AI key and used it to create a Prompt flow connection

I created a chat flow

I accepted the default flow name

I updated the flow to make use of the OpenAI (large language model) connection

I updated the default question text

I used the Test menu item to run the flow with standard mode

I ran the Prompt flow with interactive mode (multi-modal)

The new chat flow included a single llm tool (named "chat")

The chat.jinja2 file is used to compose the large language model prompt (with the chat history included)
