+## Platform SDK Quickstart Guide
+
+#### Python SDK v2
+
+The steps below illustrate how to use the latest developer tools to
+create a custom plugin or tool for use in Alteryx. For more information
+about new SDKs and their usage within Alteryx, please visit [Platform
+SDK](../references/platform-sdk.md).
+
+### Requirements and Prerequisites
+
+Before you get started, make sure that these items are installed on your
+machine:
+
+-   Microsoft Windows 7 or Later (64-bit)
+-   Alteryx Designer Version 2021.2\*
+-   Python Version 3.8.5
+-   [pip](https://pypi.org/) (automatically installed with Python 3.8.5)
+-   [node](https://nodejs.org/en/download/) [14](https://nodejs.org/en/blog/release/v14.17.3/)
+-   [Git](https://git-scm.com/downloads)
+
+\*Alteryx Designer version 2021.4 or greater is required to use the Alteryx Python
+SDK v2.0.0.
+
+### CLI
+
+The AYX Plugin CLI provides you with a set of utilities to manage your
+plugin and is a great starting point for building a tool. AYX Python SDK
+installation is also covered in this section.
+
+Follow these steps to get started with the CLI:
+
+1.  Run this command to install the AYX Plugin CLI:\
+    \
+    `pip install ayx-plugin-cli`\
+
+2.  To verify that you installed the CLI properly, run this command:\
+    \
+    `ayx_plugin_cli version`\
+    \
+    If the installation was successful the above command returns the
+    version number. If the CLI was not installed properly, the
+    `ayx_plugin_cli` command is not recognized in the terminal, and your
+    terminal reflects that.\
+
+3.  Run this command to install the AYX Python SDK:\
+    \
+    `pip install ayx-python-sdk`\
+    \
+    *(Optional) Create a new directory to house all of your workspaces
+    and plugins, and continue the steps in this guide from the new
+    directory. This helps keep your folder structure clean.*\
+
+4.  Once the installation is successful, run this command to create a
+    workspace:\
+    \
+    `ayx_plugin_cli sdk-workspace-init`\
+    \
+    The command asks you to provide information about your workspace
+    through a series of prompts.\
+
+5.  Once you have stepped through the above command, run this command to
+    create a custom tool or plugin:\
+    \
+    `ayx_plugin_cli create-ayx-plugin`\
+    \
+    The command asks you to provide information about your tool or
+    plugin through a series of prompts. Note that this operation can
+    take a minute to complete.
+
+Once you have stepped through the above command, you can go to the
+location of your workspace and view the files that were created for the
+new plugin.
+
+For more information about the CLI, please visit the [reference
+documents](../references/ayx-plugin-cli.md).
+
+### UI SDK
+
+The UI SDK consists of 2 pieces.
+
+-   The 1st piece is a React-based [component
+    library](https://alteryx.github.io/alteryx-ui/)
+    that enables you to build the interface for your tool or plugin.
+-   The 2nd piece is a [communication
+    bridge](https://alteryx.github.io/react-comms/)
+    that lets you interact with Alteryx Designer and persists the values
+    that you want to save between runs of a workflow, clicking on and
+    off a tool. These are also the values that are available to the
+    engine (back end) of your tool.
+
+For the real-time Dev Harness that assists in tool UI development, refer to [Dev Harness.](https://github.com/alteryx/dev-harness)
+
+Follow these steps to get started with the UI SDK:
+
+1.  To start on the user interface of your project, navigate to the
+    folder that was created for your workspace in the last step of the
+    CLI section above. In this workspace folder, there is a UI directory
+    for the workspace. There is a folder inside of this directory with
+    the same name as the plugin you created.
+2.  Navigate to [\[workspace directory\]\\ui\\\[plugin
+    name\]\\src\\src]{.path} for the tool you are working on.
+3.  Open the index.tsx file. This is the primary
+    [React](https://reactjs.org/)
+    file for the tool UI.
+4.  Make a change to the file. For example, edit the text of a tag, or
+    add a [new
+    component](https://alteryx.github.io/alteryx-ui/)
+    or HTML element to the page.
+5.  Save the file.
+6.  For a quick preview of your tool in a browser, run this command:\
+    \
+    `npm run start`
+7.  To view your tool in Alteryx Designer, run this command from the
+    root workspace directory. This command builds and installs your
+    plugin into Designer.\
+    \
+    `ayx_plugin_cli designer-install`
+
+Open Alteryx Designer, search for your tool, place it on the canvas, and
+view the changes.
+
+For more information about the UI SDK, please visit the [reference
+documents](https://alteryx.github.io/alteryx-ui/).
+
+
+### Python SDK
+
+
+The Python SDK defines the way that you should create the engine/back
+end/runtime of your tool. The back end also receives the configuration
+values that were created by the front end of the tool in the UI SDK
+section.
+
+Follow these steps to get started with the Python SDK:
+
+1.  To start on the engine or runtime of your project, navigate to the
+    folder that was created for your workspace in the last step of the
+    CLI section above. In this workspace folder, there is a back-end
+    directory for the workspace.
+2.  Navigate to [\[workspace directory\]\\backend\\ayx_plugins\\\[plugin
+    name\].py]{.path} for the tool you are editing.
+3.  Make changes to the file.
+4.  Save the file.
+5.  Run this command from the root workspace directory. This builds and
+    installs your plugin into Alteryx Designer.\
+    \
+    `ayx_plugin_cli designer-install`
+
+Open Alteryx Designer, search for your tool, place it on the canvas, and
+view the changes.
+
+For more information about the Python SDK, please go to the [reference
+documents](../references/platform-sdk.md) or access the full [Python
+SDK documentation](https://alteryx.github.io/ayx-python-sdk/index.html).
+You can also access this documentation locally via this command:
+
+`ayx_python_sdk docs`
+
+
+### Troubleshooting
+
+-   If you get a workflow error that says 'Can\'t find plugin
+    \"SdkEnginePlugin.dll\"\', or \"This tool is only supported in the
+    AMP Engine. Please enable AMP to use this tool.\", [enable the AMP
+    engine](https://help.alteryx.com/20223/designer/alteryx-amp-engine)
+    for the workflow.
+-   If your tool panel does not render or shows a blank screen, [enable
+    Chrome Developer
+    Tools](https://help.alteryx.com/developer-help/html-developer-tools).
+    Now, when you select your tool a Chrome debugger is presented and
+    you can see any errors for the tool interface.
