## Workshops

May 21st, 9am – 4pm PST

WORKSHOP 1

### Building AI Apps using a Copilot+ PC with Snapdragon X Elite

May 21, 2025 | 9:00 - 10:15

L2, Chelan 4

We started the series by rolling up our sleeves and diving into code for creating chatbots and agents. Participants got hands-on experience with building and running AI applications on Snapdragon X Elite devices.

The sample apps can be found on GitHub here: [GitHub - Microsoft Build workshop for the Hychatbot and agent](https://github.com/thatrandomfrenchdude/MSFT-Build-2025-Template).

If you want to test out these applications using Docker, Ollama, and AnythingLLM on Snapdragon X Elite, you can follow along with the instructions in the following projects and run them on the Qualcomm Device Cloud:

[Project - Build a npu chatbot](https://www.qualcomm.com/developer/project/build-a-simple-npu-chatbot)

[Project - Ollama on Snapdragon X-Elite](https://www.qualcomm.com/developer/project/ollama-with-windows-on-snapdragon-wos)
