Android SDK tools are integrated into Android Studio, with downloads for the full IDE or command-line-only tools available on the official Android Studio download page. The SDK includes essential components like Platform-Tools (adb, fastboot) and Build-Tools, which are best managed, updated, and installed via the Android Studio SDK Manager or the command-line sdkmanager tool.
