+# Installing AGL SDKs
+
+To build your AGL services or AGL applications using XDS you must install a SDK
+matching the target/board you want to use. A SDK is a package that includes all
+tools you need to cross-build and cross-debug your service/application.
+
+You can generate the AGL SDK for the board you want to use or you can download
+a pre-packaged AGL SDK.
+
+## Installing SDK cross-toolchain
+
+`xds-server` uses SDK cross-toolchain installed into directory pointed by
+`sdkRootDir` setting (see `xds-server` configuration chapter for more details).
+
+For now, you can only install SDK using a bash script but in a near future you
+will be able to do that using XDS Dashboard.
+
+So to install a SDK, use provided `install-agl-sdks` script:
+
+```bash
+# Optional - Log into the container (only necessary when xds-server is running within a docker container)
+seb@laptop ~$ ssh -p 2222 devel@localhost
+
+# For example, Install ARM64 SDK (automatic download)
+devel@docker ~$ sudo /opt/AGL/xds/server/xds-utils/install-agl-sdks.sh --arch aarch64
+
+# Install Intel corei7-64 SDK (using an SDK tarball that has been built or downloaded manually)
+devel@docker ~$ sudo /opt/AGL/xds/server/xds-utils/install-agl-sdks.sh --arch corei7-64 --file /tmp/poky-agl-glibc-x86_64-agl-demo-platform-crosssdk-corei7-64-toolchain-
+4.0.1.sh
+```
