Now that you have all the details, let’s get started! We’re going to do four things:

1. Create your Hugging Face Account if it’s not already done
2. Sign up to Discord and introduce yourself (don’t be shy 🤗)
3. Follow the Hugging Face Agents Course on the Hub
4. Spread the word about the course

###
Step 1: Create Your Hugging Face Account

When you join, remember to introduce yourself in `#introduce-yourself`.

We have multiple AI Agent-related channels:

In addition you can check:

If this is your first time using Discord, we wrote a Discord 101 to get the best practices. Check the next section.
