+# 2. Download or Build Your SDK Installer #
+
+The Software Development Kit (SDK) allows you to use your build host
+to develop an application specific to your target hardware.
+SDKs are installed onto your build host by running an SDK installer
+file (``*.sh``).
+
+You must either download a pre-built installer file for your SDK or
+build an installer file.
+If you are developing an application for a board supported by the AGL software, you might
+want to just download a pre-built SDK installer file.
+If your hardware is not supported by AGL, you need to build the SDK installer file.
+
+## Downloading a pre-built SDK Installer ##
+
+For a look at the SDK installers for supported boards, go to the
+[AGL Download Website](https://download.automotivelinux.org/AGL/release/).
+From there, you can explore to find the SDK installer you want to download.
+As an example, consider using a pre-built SDK to develop applications suited for a 64-bit
+ARM-based board that you want to emulate using QEMU.
+Furthermore, you are using the 6.0.0 "Flounder" release of the AGL software.
+Follow these links:
+
+```
+flounder -> 6.0.0 -> qemuarm64 -> deploy -> sdk
+```
+
+From the list, you download the ``*.sh`` file, which is an installation script for the SDK.
+Running the SDK installer script installs the SDK onto your build host.
+
+SDK installation scripts have long names that reflect the platform specifics.
+For example, the following file installs the SDK given the specifics earlier:
+
+``poky-agl-glibc-x86_64-agl-demo-platform-crosssdk-armv7vehf-neon-vfpv4-toolchain-6.0.0.sh``
+
+**NOTE:** If you want to know more about SDK installer file naming, which is a result of
+BitBake and the Yocto Project, see the
+"[Locating Pre-Built SDK Installers](https://yoctoproject.org/docs/2.4.4/sdk-manual/sdk-manual.html#sdk-locating-pre-built-sdk-installers)"
+section in the Yocto Project documentation.
+
+## Building an SDK Installer ##
+
+If you cannot find a pre-built SDK installer for your hardware, you need to build one.
+In this case, use BitBake in a similar manner used to build the image.
+See the
+"[Building an image](./app-workflow-image.html#building-an-image)"
+section for information on building an image with BitBake.
+
+The only difference between building the image and the SDK installer
+is the target you give BitBake on the command line and the final location of
+the ``*.sh`` file.
+Following is the command that you use to build the SDK installer for ``agl-demo-platform``:
+
+```
+$ bitbake agl-demo-platform-crosssdk
+```
+
+The SDK installer file (``*.sh``) is placed in the build directory.
+Assuming your top-level workspace is ``~/workspace_agl``, here is an example location
+and SDK installer file:
+
+```
+~/workspace_agl/build/tmp/deploy/sdk/poky-agl-glibc-x86_64-core-image-minimal-cortexa15hf-neon-toolchain-3.0.0+snapshot.sh
+```
