# Run sample applications using Qualcomm Visual Studio Code Extension

You can run sample applications on the evaluation kit using the Qualcomm^®^ Visual Studio Code Extension. It’s an integrated application development environment for Qualcomm evaluation kits. The extension runs in Ubuntu (or WSL with Ubuntu) and facilitates device configuration, software development including compilation, debugging, and binary flashing.

The IQ-9075 EVK supports Qualcomm Visual Studio Code Extension v2.0.0 or later.

Qualcomm Visual Studio Code Extension has the following features:

- Configures a device kit with base platform firmware images and the required SDKs to enable application development.
- Configures the developer host environment with SDK artifacts such as header files and libraries.
- Supports code search, highlighting, autocompletion, input prompts, and inspection.
- Supports source-level debug to view memory, variables, call stack, registers, and disassembly.
- Enables developers to interact with AI models needed for their applications. The extension works with Qualcomm AI Hub to optimize the models for Qualcomm platforms, profile the model performance, and integrate these models in their applications.
