Agent Development Kit (ADK) Crash Course

This repository contains examples for learning Google's Agent Development Kit (ADK), a powerful framework for building LLM-powered agents.

Getting Started

Setup Environment

You only need to create one virtual environment for all examples in this course. Follow these steps to set it up:

# Create virtual environment in the root directory
python -m venv .venv

# Activate (each new terminal)
# macOS/Linux:
source .venv/bin/activate
# Windows CMD:
.venv\Scripts\activate.bat
# Windows PowerShell:
.venv\Scripts\Activate.ps1

# Install dependencies
pip install -r requirements.txt

Once set up, this single environment will work for all examples in the repository.

Setting Up API Keys

1. Create an account in Google Cloud https://cloud.google.com/?hl=en
2. Create a new project
3. Go to https://aistudio.google.com/apikey
4. Create an API key
5. Assign key to the project
6. Connect to a billing account

Each example folder contains a .env.example file. For each project you want to run:

1. Navigate to the example folder
2. Rename .env.example to .env
3. Open the .env file and replace the placeholder with your API key:

   GOOGLE_API_KEY=your_api_key_here
