Topic: Coding, Languages, and Frameworks (including GitHub & AI coding)

Language: English

Each week Renee takes a look at a different new technology on the Microsoft stack, with a fun and friendly theme. Over the weeks explore Power Apps, Azure Functions, and Azure Cognitive Services.

This series is designed with students, beginners, and all learners in mind! Come along to learn with Renee, as she shows you how she went about creating her first ever project in these technologies, and how you can do it too!

In this learn-with-me episode, Renee takes a look at Azure Cognitive Services' Translator service. She'll combine this with a Python Flask web app to build a website that translates text, perfect for keeping conversation flowing with your pen pals!

In this episode you'll learn how to build a web app with Flask that uses request to call the translation endpoint you set up. We'll use the web app we create to write our letters to our pen pals and display them in the native language of our foreign friends.

This episode is perfect for anyone who wants to give using Azure Cognitive Services or Flask a go for the first time. It's also perfect for any budding Microsoft Student Ambassadors looking for resources to teach their peers about Power Apps.
