# Lattice Developers Documentation

> The Lattice SDK™ lets developers integrate sensors, effectors, and autonomous systems with Anduril's Lattice platform. Publish and watch entities, task agents, stream video, and manage objects over REST or gRPC from Python, TypeScript, Java, and Go.

Lattice is Anduril's software platform for building a common operating picture and command-and-control workflows. These docs cover the SDK guides, API reference, and sample applications for building on Lattice. Append `.md` to any page URL for its clean Markdown.
