# Developer Guide Overview

This guide is written for application developers, but if you are interested in the inner workings of TiDB or want to get involved in TiDB development, read the [TiDB Kernel Development Guide](https://pingcap.github.io/tidb-dev-guide/) for more information about TiDB.

## Use MySQL client software

As TiDB is a MySQL-compatible database, you can use many client software tools to connect to TiDB Cloud and manage the databases just like you did before. Or, use our <a href="/tidbcloud/get-started-with-cli">command line tool</a> to connect and manage your databases.

## TiDB basics

Before you start working with TiDB, you need to understand some important mechanisms of how TiDB works:
Expand All @@ -38,18 +205,8 @@ You can start a transaction using [`BEGIN`](/sql-statements/sql-statement-begin.

TiDB guarantees atomicity for all statements between the start of `BEGIN` and the end of `COMMIT` or `ROLLBACK`, that is, all statements that are executed during this period either succeed or fail as a whole. This is used to ensure data consistency you need for application development.

<CustomContent platform="tidb">

If you are not sure what an **optimistic transaction** is, do **_NOT_** use it yet. Because **optimistic transactions** require that the application can correctly handle [all errors](/error-codes.md) returned by the `COMMIT` statement. If you are not sure how your application handles them, use a **pessimistic transaction** instead.

## The way applications interact with TiDB

TiDB is highly compatible with the MySQL protocol and supports [most MySQL syntax and features](/mysql-compatibility.md), so most MySQL connection libraries are compatible with TiDB. If your application framework or language does not have an official adaptation from PingCAP, it is recommended that you use MySQL's client libraries. More and more third-party libraries are actively supporting TiDB's different features.
