You can now write 'azd hooks' in Python, TypeScript and JavaScript!
I built a sample template showing all three languages in action.

azd custom params - Someone asked me how to add custom prompts to azd up. Couldn't find one comprehensive doc, so I built a sample repo showing 3 approaches - allowed pick lists, free-text params, and hooks.

`azd update` is live.
I kept forgetting how I installed azd, so updating was always annoying. The team shipped `azd update` and now it's just one command, any platform, done.
Try it and file issues if you hit anything.

The gap between "Copilot can explain Azure" and "Copilot can do Azure work" just closed.

This will be helpful to you if you use EMU and Public GitHub CLI on the same machine. Just point copilot at this repo and tell it to set it up for you.

You'll have two Windows Terminal profiles one for each gh auth.

`az group bulk-delete` is a new az extension that helps you delete azure resource groups in bulk. By default, it looks for any group tagged with `delete` - but is fully customizable and interactive.
