The primary command-line tool for Google Cloud, bundled in the Cloud SDK alongside gsutil for Cloud Storage and bq for BigQuery. After gcloud init authorizes access and sets a default configuration, you use it to manage resources, authenticate, deploy apps, and script tasks across services rather than working through the web console. Optional add-on components include kubectl, minikube, skaffold, and local emulators for Bigtable, Datastore, Firestore, Pub/Sub, and Spanner.
