This session is part of Road to HACK, a series of practical events designed to get you ready for GDG AI HACK 2025 — our 24-hour student hackathon happening on May 10–11 in Milan.

Think of it as your pre-game: workshops, insights, and hands-on learning to level up your AI skills before the main event.

Workshop - Agent Development Kit: a Quickstart

Tired of basic LLM demos? It’s time to step up your game.

In this session, we’ll dive into the Agent Development Kit (ADK) — a modular framework built for creating smart, flexible, and locally-runnable AI agents using Gemini and other Google AI tools.

You’ll learn how to set up your first agent, plug in multiple tools, and run it directly on your machine — all in a clean dev environment you control.

🧠 What you’ll learn:

• Installing and setting up ADK in your local dev environment
• Creating a multi-tool AI agent using Gemini models
• Running your agent via terminal or the interactive browser UI
• How to structure agents for more complex use cases

And stick around after the session — we’re grabbing drinks and having an aperitivo together 🍹
