AI‑102 Study Notes – Start Here

Introduction

When I was studying for the AI-102 exam I took a lot of notes. I've tidied these up and added these to the Exam topics section, where you'll find study notes, tips etc. for each topic. It also includes links to the official Microsoft docs for more detail where needed. Where I've found a particuarly useful GitHub repo or blog post, I've included that as well.

Happy studying and good luck with the exam!
