Transcript
Building multi-agent AI systems costs $39 per developer monthly on competing platforms. Microsoft Agent Framework is completely free. This powerhouse orchestrates complex multi-agent workflows across both Python and net with graph-based flows that include streaming, checkpointing, human in the loop debugging, and even time travel capabilities to replay agent decisions. You get a full visual development interface, built-in observability with open telemetry, and support for multiple LLM providers without paying enterprise licensing. Worth a star? Link in description.
