## How It Works

For the conceptual overview of how Evaluator separates definition (library) from execution (platform), see [About Evaluating → How It Works](/documentation/evaluate-models#how-it-works-library-platform). For runnable SDK examples, see [SDK Resources](/documentation/evaluate-models/sdk-resources).
