# Run sample applications

Qualcomm^®^ Linux^®^ includes various sample applications. Two main groups of sample applications are available, each suited for different use cases such as retail, Qualcomm^®^ Edge AI Box Solutions, and IP camera.

Run sample applications to explore multimedia and AI capabilities: multimedia sample applications show camera, video, and audio functionalities, while AI sample applications showcase AI and machine learning (ML) features.

[Use the Qualcomm Visual Studio Code Extension](https://docs.qualcomm.com/doc/80-70020-251/topic/run-apps-using-ide.html#run-apps-using-vscode)
