What is an SDK (Software Development Kit)?
A set of libraries and tools that enable a developer to integrate a service into their application. In the context of analytics, an SDK is the client-side or server-side library that provides methods for firing events - for example, analytics.track("Purchase Completed", { amount: 99.00 }). Analytics SDKs are provided by platforms like Segment, Amplitude, and Mixpanel. Type-safe tracking SDKs generated from a tracking plan are a form of code-generated wrapper around these base SDKs.
