# Boston Dynamics | Developer
Integrate Boston Dynamics robots into your applications with the Boston Dynamics Developer Toolkit.
The Toolkit consists of:
* Robot APIs to control the robot and read information about the world.
* The Python client library and tests.
* Documentation.
* Example Programs.
## Python
### Supported Platforms and Versions
The Python client library is supported on the following platforms:
* Windows 10
* MacOS 10.14 (Mojave)
* Ubuntu 18.04 LTS
Python 3.6 and Python 3.7 are supported. Note that Python 3.8 is not supported at this point.
Python 2.7 is _not_ supported. The [Python 2 End-Of-Life](<https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0373/>) is coming at the beginning of 2020, and Python developers are encouraged to move to Python 3.
### Documentation and tutorials
The [Python QuickStart](docs/python/quickstart.html) is a step-by-step guide that will get you up and running on the Python libraries, and cover a number of key concepts along the way.
The [Python Reference](docs/python/reference/index.html) is a detailed reference manual for API calls.
Example Programs:
* [Hello, Spot!](python/examples/hello_spot/hello_spot.py) provides a basic template for issuing simple commands to Spot.
* [WASD](python/examples/wasd/wasd.py) is an interactive terminal-based program for controlling Spot via the keyboard. It demonstrates more advanced use of the command system.
* The [Command Line](python/bosdyn-client/src/bosdyn/client/command_line.py) tool lets you inspect the state of the robot, and demonstrates how to handle errors well.
