Generate SDKs in the Developer Portal

A Software Development Kit (SDK) is a set of software development tools that allows you to create applications for a specific platform. If an API consumer wants to create an application, they can generate a client-side SDK for a supported language/framework and use it to write a software application to consume the subscribed APIs.
