If you are new to Dapr and haven't done so already, it is recommended you go through the Dapr Getting Started instructions.
Pick a building block API (for example, PubSub, state management, etc) and rapidly try it out in your favorite language SDK (recommended), or via HTTP. Visit the Dapr Docs Quickstarts Guide for a comprehensive walkthrough of each example.
| Dapr Quickstart | Description |
|---|---|
| Workflow | Dapr Workflow enables you to create long running, fault-tolerant, stateful applications |
| AI | Create AI agents and apps that are durable, fault-tolerant with built-in synchronous and asynchronous messaging |
| Publish and Subscribe | Asynchronous communication between two services using messaging |
| AI | Agentic building blocks including durable workflows, eventing, authentication and state persistence |
| Service Invocation | Synchronous communication between two services using HTTP |
| State Management | Store a service's data as key/value pairs in supported state stores |
| Bindings | Work with external systems using input bindings to respond to events and output bindings to call operations |
| Secrets Management | Securely fetch secrets |
| Actors | Create stateful, long running objects with identity |
| Configuration | Get configuration items as key/value pairs or subscribe to changes whenever a configuration item changes |
| Cryptography | Perform cryptographic operations without exposing keys to your application |
| Resiliency | Define and apply fault-tolerant policies (retries/back-offs, timeouts and circuit breakers) to your Dapr API requests |
| Jobs | Dapr Jobs enable you to manage and schedule tasks |
Go deeper into a topic or scenario, oftentimes using building block APIs together to solve problems (for example, build a distributed calculator, build and deploy an app to Kubernetes).
| Tutorials | Description |
|---|---|
| Hello-world | Demonstrates how to run Dapr locally. Highlights service invocation and state management. |
| Hello-kubernetes | Demonstrates how to run Dapr in Kubernetes. Highlights service invocation and state management. |
| Distributed-calculator | Demonstrates a distributed calculator application that uses Dapr services to power a React web app. Highlights polyglot (multi-language) programming, service invocation and state management. |
| Pub-sub | Demonstrates how to use Dapr to enable pub-sub applications. Uses Redis as a pub-sub component. |
| Bindings | Demonstrates how to use Dapr to create input and output bindings to other components. Uses bindings to Kafka. |
| Observability | Demonstrates Dapr tracing capabilities. Uses Zipkin as a tracing component. |
| Secret Store | Demonstrates the use of Dapr Secrets API to access secret stores. |
| Workflow | Demonstrates how to author and manage Dapr workflows. Includes workflow patterns, resiliency, and common challenges & tips. |
