To get the most out of this book
To take full advantage of this book, you will need to have the following list of software installed on your system. You also need to have an Azure DevOps and a GitHub account. Finally, you need to have an active Azure subscription, which you can get for free, all of which is described in the book.
I highly recommend that you follow along with the book to get the best out of it. Also feel free to use other types of resources for your own benefit, and when in doubt, always refer to Microsoft's documentation on Bicep.
