## It's time to Fall For Intelligent Apps 🍂

Join us this fall on a learning journey to explore building intelligent apps. Combine the power of **AI, cloud-scale data, and cloud-native app development** to create highly differentiated digital experiences. Develop adaptive, responsive, and personalized experiences by building and modernizing intelligent applications with Azure for your users. 

This year, we have a new set of initiatives to support you on the journey - from blog posts that demystify Intelligent Apps, to a community gallery that features content and code samples created to help _you_ be more effective building your own solutions.

## Learn Live: Serverless Edition

But I am most excited for this one - our new 4-part Learn Live Series where we deconstruct _Contoso Real Estate_ - an enterprise-grade reference sample using a composable architecture to build a multi-scenario application, on Azure.

**Why should you learn this skill?** 

There are a lot of beginner-friendly tutorials that teach you to build real-world applications with current technologies. But building _enterprise-grade_ solutions is hard. How do you bridge the gap between knowing application development, and learning best practices for deploying solutions in CI/CD pipelines, for real-world usage at scale.

![Sketchnote of value of samples](https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/ltd5ro0xc0ws7tt5zy8w.jpeg)

With new tools and technologies like GitHub Codespaces, and GitHub Copilot - you can also build, deploy - and understand - unfamiliar codebases and applications on you own. Join us for the next four Thursdays as we explore an open-source codebase for an enterprise-grade reference sample on Azure. Then **transfer that knowledge to building your own serverless, intelligent apps on Azure**.
