Many ways to connect

Welcome to Module 3, where you start writing real code. A Foundry app is built from a mix of services and software frameworks, a bit like a kitchen stocked with appliances from different brands. For a generative AI chat app, there's a whole range of ways to write that code, and choosing well up front saves you rewrites later.

Four choices

This module walks you through four choices: which endpoint to call, which SDK to use, how your app proves who it is, and which chat API it speaks. One heads-up: a few Foundry features are still in preview, so some details may shift over time.
