# Amazon GameLift Streams backend service and web client
<a name="sdk"></a>

 Amazon GameLift Streams enables you to stream applications through a web browser. With the Amazon GameLift Streams Web SDK, you can set up a backend streaming service. Then, end users connect to a stream through a web client. They can play your game or interact with your application all through the cloud. 

 The Amazon GameLift Streams Web SDK includes a sample backend server and a sample web client, which you can use to get started on creating a backend service. You can also use these samples to test how Amazon GameLift Streams streams, without additional development. To get started, refer to [Setting up a web server and client with Amazon GameLift Streams](setting-up-web-sdk.md).
