# Basic Context

These examples show how context is propagated through Spans in OpenTelemetry. There are three different examples:

- implicit_context: Shows how starting a span implicitly creates context.

- child_context: Shows how context is propagated through child spans.

- async_context: Shows how context can be shared in another coroutine.

The source files of these examples are available here.

## Installation

    pip install opentelemetry-api
    pip install opentelemetry-sdk

## Run the Example

    python <example_name>.py

The output will be shown in the console.
