APEX MicroHack is a one-day team exercise where you use GitHub Copilot to move from
business requirements to reviewed Azure architecture, governed IaC delivery, deployment evidence, and a final showcase.
Start here if you are preparing for the event or running the workshop on your own time.
Your hands-on work happens in a repository created from the APEX Accelerator. This docs repo
is the guide for setup, scenario context, and challenge navigation.
