The Source SDK is a software development kit compiled by Valve that is used to create maps or mods for the Source Engine. Some of the SDK features are:

  • A launcher similar to main menu screens seen in early Valve games.
  • A drop-down menu to select the Source Engine version and base game.
  • The Hammer editor.
  • Half-Life Model Viewer and face poser.

In 2003, the Half-Life 2 beta source code was leaked to the public, the leak included the source code for a early build of Team Fortress 2 and the SDK.

The SDK, was released on November 5, 2004.

Team Fortress 2, specifically uses Source SDK 2007.
