With the features in Azure AI Foundry, and the release of the Microsoft Agent Framework, a guide for startup founders that pulls everything together would be valuable. Below, I’ve drafted a sample TOC... I’d love your feedback. 😍 P.S. Credit to Google’s Startup Technical Guide for influence.

Excited about Microsoft Agent Framework: devblogs.microsoft.com/foundry/intr... Currenly Microsoft has probably the most mature AI toolkit in the industry.

I just discovered that VMware Worstation Pro is now a free software! @vmware.bsky.social ... and is working great on top of @microsoft.com Hyper-V on Windows 11 Pro. Now you can have WSL2, Hyper-V and VMware all at the same time.

Marian Veteanu @mveteanu.bsky.social · 14/08/2025

When WSL2 isn’t sufficient, you can take advantage of full Hyper-V (available on Windows 11 Pro) to run custom virtual machines. While Hyper-V may not offer all the refinements of VMware, it remains a robust and reliable solution for Windows.

I wrote a book—not a big deal, just an illustrated JavaScript coding course for the whole family. The book has caught the attention of a publisher, but I’m not sure if I’ll go down that road just yet... ➡️ For now, enjoy the self-published edition: www.lulu.com/shop/marian-...

It's likely a mix of both. Good UI/UX patterns tend to converge in effective tools, but the similarity also suggests "imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. I'm wonder if they considered the use of windowed TUI like the old TurboVision?

If you've figured out how to exit Vim, here's your next challenge: run a code assistant in the terminal. P.S. By the way - they run great under WSL. Question is why run a code assistant in terminal unless you're debugging a legacy code base in production on a Win 2000 VM?

When your product starts to gain traction, everyone has a request: Sales, CS, enterprise clients. But if you build by demand alone, you’ll lose clarity, and ultimately, product identity. See how product leaders can lead the roadmap and not just follow the noise. 👇 linkedin.com/pulse/faster...

I asked someone which AI assistant they were using. They replied, "ChatGPT! Wait — there are others?" The answer surprised me slightly but is align with the following stats. Consumers know very little about AI chatbots other than ChatGPT. From: youtube.com/watch?v=egeq...

Home users, hobbyists, and aspiring entrepreneurs need a visual way to build apps. Not another clunky no-code/low-code platform, but a modern environment featuring a UI builder, sleek widgets, and clean, low-boilerplate code in a beginner-friendly language. AI? That’s the cherry on top. Feedback?
