    using Microsoft.Extensions.AI;
    using DevExpress.AIIntegration;
    using DevExpress.AIIntegration.Extensions;
    
    SetEnvironmentVariables();
    
    // Register an Azure OpenAI client
    AIExtensionsContainerDefault defaultAIExtensionsContainer = RegisterAzureOpenAIClient(
        Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("AZURE_OPENAI_ENDPOINT"),
        Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("AZURE_OPENAI_APIKEY")
    );
    
    string originalText = "The AI-powered expand extension enriches your text with additional information or in-depth explanations.";
    var response = await defaultAIExtensionsContainer.ExpandAsync(
        new ExpandRequest(originalText)
    );
    
    Console.WriteLine(response);
