+# 5. Get Ready to Create Your Application #
+
+Multiple methods exist that allow you to create your application.
+You can use the X(cross) Development System (XDS), or you can use
+a stand-alone Software Development Kit (SDK).
+The preferred method is to use XDS.
+
+## Using XDS ##
+
+It is recommended that you develop your application using XDS,
+which allows you to build, deploy, and execute personal projects on a target
+either through the XDS dashboard or the XDS command line.
+
+To use XDS, you need to install server and client parts
+and then use XDS to install the SDK:
+
+1. **Install the XDS Server:** You might not have to install the XDS Server.
+ If, for example, you are using an existing XDS server running on your local network
+ or in the Cloud, you can use that server.
+
+ If you do not have an existing XDS server, you need to install one.
+ Three install types exist: container, virtual machine, or native.
+ Follow the steps from the appropriate section to install and start an XDS server:
+
+ * **Container:** [Installation based on Docker container](http://docs.automotivelinux.org/docs/devguides/en/dev/reference/xds/part-1/1-1_install-xds-server-docker.html)
+
+ * **Virtual Machine:** [Installation based on Virtual Machine appliance](http://docs.automotivelinux.org/docs/devguides/en/dev/reference/xds/part-1/1-2_install-xds-server-vm.html)
+
+ * **Native:** [Native installation](http://docs.automotivelinux.org/docs/devguides/en/dev/reference/xds/part-1/1-3_install-xds-server-native.html)
+
+2. **Install the XDS Client Tools** The XDS Agent (``xds-agent``) needs to run on your build host.
+ The agent interfaces with a Command-line Interpretor (CLI) tool (``xds-cli``) and an
+ XDS Dashboard through a browser.
+ Installation involves making sure you have the correct packages installed on the
+ build host.
+ Follow the steps in the
+ "[Installing XDS Client Tools](http://docs.automotivelinux.org/docs/devguides/en/dev/reference/xds/part-1/1_install-client.html)"
+ section to install the XDS client tools and learn how to start the agent.
+
+3. **Install the SDK:** Once you have XDS up, you need to install the
+ SDK using either the command line or the Dashboard.
+ See the
+ "[Installing AGL SDKs](http://docs.automotivelinux.org/docs/devguides/en/dev/reference/xds/part-1/3_install-sdks.html)"
+ section for information on using both.
+
+## Installing a stand-alone SDK ##
+
+ * **Using only the SDK:** If you do not want to use XDS, you can install the SDK by itself.
+ For information, see the
+ "[App development SDK for Intel Minnowboard](https://wiki.automotivelinux.org/agl-distro/developer_resources_intel_apps)"
+ Wiki article and the
+ "[AGL SDK Quick Setup](http://docs.automotivelinux.org/docs/getting_started/en/dev/reference/setup-sdk-environment.html)"
+ section for steps on how to work with a stand-alone SDK.
