Neon SDKs
Summary: Neon SDKs split into two categories: Client SDKs (TypeScript) for building apps with the Data API and Managed Better Auth, and Management SDKs (TypeScript, Python) for programmatically creating and controlling projects, branches, databases, endpoints, and roles via the Neon API. Client SDKs target app developers who need database queries and user authentication; Management SDKs target platform automation and DevOps workflows.
Neon SDKs
Section titled “Neon SDKs”Neon provides two categories of SDKs to support different use cases:
- Client SDKs: For application developers building apps with the Data API and optionally Managed Better Auth. These SDKs handle database queries and user authentication from your application.
- Management SDKs: For programmatically managing Neon platform resources like projects, branches, databases, endpoints, and roles. These are wrappers around the Neon API.
Client SDKs
Section titled “Client SDKs”Use these SDKs to build applications with the Data API and optional authentication via Managed Better Auth or another JWT provider.
- Auth and Data API SDK: Build apps with the Data API using Managed Better Auth and database queries
Management SDKs
Section titled “Management SDKs”Use these SDKs to programmatically manage your Neon infrastructure (projects, branches, databases, endpoints, roles, and operations).
- Neon Management SDK: The official TypeScript SDK for the Neon API. Manage projects, branches, Postgres, storage, functions, and auth from one typed client
- Migrate to @neon/sdk: Migrate from @neondatabase/api-client to @neon/sdk
- Python SDK (Neon API): Programmatically manage Neon projects, branches, databases, and other platform resources
