# Add Codex to Your App

> You have two options for adding the Codex API into your app

| Option 1: *SDK* (recommended)                | Option 2: *GraphQL API*                           |
| -------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------- |
| Thin wrapper around the API                  | More customizable depending on your use case      |
| Designed to get you started on Codex quickly | Requires more configuration                       |
| Built-in subscription connection handling    | More control over the connections                 |
| Predefined queries and mutations             | Write your own queries                            |
| Good choice if you *ARE* using Typescript    | Good choice if you *ARE NOT* not using Typescript |
