# Packages

The Cosmos SDK is a collection of Go modules. This section provides documentation on various packages that can used when developing a Cosmos SDK chain.
It lists all standalone Go modules that are part of the Cosmos SDK.

:::tip
For more information on SDK modules, see the [SDK Modules](https://docs.cosmos.network/main/modules) section.
For more information on SDK tooling, see the [Tooling](https://docs.cosmos.network/main/tooling) section.
