 In this quickstart, you learn how to send events to an event hub and then receive those events from the event hub using the **Azure.Messaging.EventHubs** .NET library. 
 
 > [!NOTE]
-> Quickstarts are for you to quickly ramp up on the service. If you are already familiar with the service, you might want to see .NET samples for Event Hubs in our .NET SDK repository on GitHub: [Event Hubs samples on GitHub](https://github.com/Azure/azure-sdk-for-net/tree/master/sdk/eventhub/Azure.Messaging.EventHubs/samples), [Event processor samples on GitHub](https://github.com/Azure/azure-sdk-for-net/tree/master/sdk/eventhub/Azure.Messaging.EventHubs.Processor/samples).

 ## Prerequisites
 If you're new to Azure Event Hubs, see [Event Hubs overview](event-hubs-about.md) before you go through this quickstart. 
 
 To complete this quickstart, you need the following prerequisites:
 
-- **Microsoft Azure subscription**. To use Azure services, including Azure Event Hubs, you need a subscription.  If you don't have an existing Azure account, you can sign up for a [free trial](https://azure.microsoft.com/free/?WT.mc_id=A261C142F) or use your MSDN subscriber benefits when you [create an account](https://azure.microsoft.com).
-- **Microsoft Visual Studio 2022**. The Azure Event Hubs client library makes use of new features that were introduced in C# 8.0.  You can still use the library with  previous C# language versions, but the new syntax isn't available. To make use of the full syntax, we recommend that you compile with the [.NET Core SDK](https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download) 3.0 or higher and [language version](/dotnet/csharp/language-reference/configure-language-version#override-a-default) set to `latest`. If you're using Visual Studio, versions before Visual Studio 2022 aren't compatible with the tools needed to build C# 8.0 projects. Visual Studio 2022, including the free Community edition, can be downloaded [here](https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/vs/).

 - **Create an Event Hubs namespace and an event hub**. The first step is to use the Azure portal to create an Event Hubs namespace and an event hub in the namespace. Then, obtain the management credentials that your application needs to communicate with the event hub. To create a namespace and an event hub, see [Quickstart: Create an event hub using Azure portal](event-hubs-create.md).
