# Elixir SDK (/sdks/elixir)



The KubeMQ Elixir SDK provides an OTP-native GenServer client for all messaging patterns. It requires Elixir 1.15+ and communicates with KubeMQ over gRPC.

## Installation [#installation]

Add `kubemq` to your `mix.exs` dependencies:

```elixir title="mix.exs"
defp deps do
  [
    {:kubemq, "~> 1.0"}
  ]
end
```

Then fetch:

```bash
mix deps.get
```

## Next: send your first message [#next-send-your-first-message]

With the SDK installed, continue to the [first-message tutorial](/sdks/elixir/tutorials/first-message) to connect a client and publish and receive your first message.
