Overview of the programming exercises

Important: The AF SDK Getting Started GitHub code samples work with both the .NET Framework and the .NET 8 versions of the AF SDK; however, these code samples cannot be used in a .NET 8.0+ development environment.

Each lesson introduces the required tasks and provides related hints and tips. The lessons and exercises are designed to help you gain the following skills:

• Create methods that model the types of work you will perform with the AF SDK.

• Lessons 1–3 require only a basic understanding of the AVEVA™ PI System™ and Asset Framework (AF).

• Lessons 4 and 5 require more in-depth knowledge of the PI System and how to perform certain operations.

Complete source code is provided for each lesson and programing exercise, and explanatory text contains code snippets you can use to augment your understanding of the material.

For complete code samples, refer to the AF SDK Getting Started Guide GitHub repository.
