+# Use OpenAI at Azure with Python
+
+## Prerequisites for this Example
+
+- Windows
+- One of the latest Python 3.x releases: https://www.python.org/downloads/
+- Microsoft C++ Build Tools: https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/visual-cpp-build-tools/
+
+## Run this Example
+
+```bash
+# check python version (run once)
+python --version
+
+# create new virtual environment (run once)
+python -m venv .venv
+
+# activate the virtual environment (run before each session)
+.venv\Scripts\activate.ps1 # PowerShell
+.venv\Scripts\activate.bat # CMD
+
+# workaround currently necessary for Python 3.12, ignore if you use 3.11 or before (run once)
+pip --require-virtualenv install aiohttp==3.9.0b0
+
+# install openai dependency (run once)
+pip --require-virtualenv install openai tenacity python-dotenv
+
+# prepare environment variables (run once)
+cp .env-template .env
+code .env
+
+# run the example script (run whenever you feel like it)
+python example.py
+
+# deactivate the virtual environment (run at the end of the session)
