Code examples
Code and configuration examples are illustrative. They are written to demonstrate a technique, not to be dropped unreviewed into a production system. You are responsible for reviewing, testing and securing any code you use — including, and especially, code produced by an AI assistant.
Example credentials, tokens and secrets shown in this site's code are always placeholders. Never commit a real credential, and never paste a real secret into a prompt.
External links
We link to external documentation, primarily GitHub's. We do not control those sites and are not responsible for their content, availability or accuracy. A link is not an endorsement.
