 # SDK Quickstarts
 
-> **Draft** — This section is a placeholder for future content.
+Getting started guides for using pdftract from various programming languages. Each SDK implements the same 9-method contract: `extract`, `extract_text`, `extract_markdown`, `extract_stream`, `search`, `get_metadata`, `hash`, `classify`, and `verify_receipt`.
 
-Getting started guides for using pdftract from various programming languages.
+## Available SDKs
+
+- **[Rust](./rust.md)** — The `pdftract-core` crate with native zero-copy PDF processing
+- **[Python](./python.md)** — Native Python bindings with PyO3, plus subprocess fallback
+- **[JavaScript/TypeScript](./javascript.md)** — npm package with Node.js and browser support
+- **[Go](./go.md)** — Go module with native bindings
+
+## Choosing an SDK
+
+- **Rust** — Best for performance-critical applications and CLI tools
+- **Python** — Best for data science, ML pipelines, and scripting
+- **JavaScript** — Best for web applications and serverless functions
+- **Go** — Best for microservices and cloud-native applications
+
+All SDKs support:
+- Remote PDFs via HTTP/HTTPS URLs
+- Encrypted PDFs with password
+- OCR for scanned documents (with feature flag)
+- Streaming extraction for large documents
+- Cryptographic receipt verification
+
+## See Also
+
+- [JSON Schema Reference](../json-schema-reference.md)
+- [CLI Reference](../cli/README.md)
+- [Installation Guide](../installation.md)

+## Recent Update (2026-05-31)
+
+Added `tests/fixtures/sample.pdf` (copied from `valid-minimal.pdf`) so examples can run with their default path without requiring command-line arguments.

 ## Conclusion
 
-No changes needed. All acceptance criteria are met by the existing workspace state.
