Note that after the installation of **Var:ProductName SDK**, the **New Project** dialog box from Var:VisualStudioEdition will feature additional project templates specific to the Var:ProductName application development.
* You can get the latest version from the [developer hub](https://appstore.sdl.com/language/developers/sdk.html).

* If your implementations need to connect to a TM Server system, then make sure that the TM Server also runs the latest version.
* If you are developing against a version of API the which is distributed with one of SDL's publicly released applications (i.e. Var:ProductNameWithEdition), then all required assemblies and files should be available alongside the application. Make sure that you have the latest release of Var:ProductName installed.
