Installing ADK

Create & activate virtual environment

We recommend creating a virtual Python environment using venv:

python -m venv .venv

Now, you can activate the virtual environment using the appropriate command for your operating system and environment:

# Mac / Linux
source .venv/bin/activate

# Windows CMD:
.venv\Scripts\activate.bat

# Windows PowerShell:
.venv\Scripts\Activate.ps1

Install ADK

pip install google-adk

(Optional) Verify your installation:

pip show google-adk
