the method that best fits your development workflow.

## Ways to run agents

-   :material-web:{ .lg .middle } **Dev UI**

    ---

    Use `adk web` to launch a browser-based interface for interacting with your
    agents.

    [:octicons-arrow-right-24: Use the Web Interface](web-interface.md)

-   :material-console:{ .lg .middle } **Command Line**

    ---

    Use `adk run` to interact with your agents directly in the terminal.

-   :material-api:{ .lg .middle } **API Server**

    ---

    Use `adk api_server` to expose your agents through a RESTful API.
