SDK Syncler-Glossar

An SDK (Software Development Kit) is a collection of tools, libraries, documentation and examples that are made available to developers to create software applications for a specific platform or system. An SDK facilitates and accelerates the development process by providing the necessary resources and tools.

The main components of an SDK are:

1. libraries and APIs: These contain predefined functions and routines that simplify common tasks and interactions with the platform or system.

2. development tools: These include compilers, debuggers, emulators and other tools necessary for writing, testing and debugging code.

3. documentation: Detailed instructions and references that explain how to use the various components of the SDK. This can be in the form of manuals, online documentation or code examples.

4. sample code: Sample applications and code snippets that serve as a starting point for developers and show how specific tasks can be solved with the SDK.

5. build and deployment tools: Tools that help to compile the developed software and deploy it to the target platform.

By providing an SDK, the development process is standardized and simplified, resulting in faster and more efficient development.
