Samples, Snippets, and How-To Guides
Developers like to learn by looking at code, and so the Azure SDK comes with a myriad of code samples in the form of short code snippets, sample applications, and how-to guides. This document describes where to find all these resources.
Structure of the Repository
The Azure SDK repository is organized in the following folder structure, with the main sample locations highlighted using bold font.
/samples (this folder)
README.md (this file)
/sdk (folder containing sources, samples, test for all SDK packages)
/<samples>
/<service> (e.g. iot)
/<package> (e.g. hub)
README.md (package READMEs contain hello world samples)
src (source files for samples)
Getting Started Samples
Each package folder contains a package-specific README.md file. Most of these README files contain Hello World code samples illustrating basic usage of the the APIs contained in the package.
Package Samples and How-To Guides
Under the /sdk/samples directory, each service has a set of subfolders with samples for each package. These samples can either be short programs contained in *.c files, or more complete how-to guides (code samples and some commentary) contained in *.md files. You can find shortcuts to the main how-to guides in the How-To Guides List section below.
How-To Guide List
This section lists how-to guides for the most commonly used APIs and most common scenarios, i.e. this section does not attempt to be a complete directory of guides contained in this repository.
