What is an SDK (Software Development Kit)?

Definition: A packaged set of tools (libraries, documentation, sample code) that helps partners integrate specific functionality faster.

In iGaming, SDKs often cover:

Frontend widgets for registration, payment UI, game launch components.
Mobile app integrations (iOS/Android).
Analytics/event tracking standards.

Why it matters: Speeds up integration, reduces implementation errors, and keeps partner implementations consistent across versions.

Considerations: compatibility, update cadence, backward compatibility, and clear integration guides.
