The SharePoint Server 2016 Client Components SDK can be used to enable remote and local development with SharePoint Server 2016.
This easy-to-use, redistributable package of the Microsoft Silverlight and Microsoft .NET managed client object models in Microsoft SharePoint 2016 enables developers to reference the client object model. The package includes a comprehensive collection of client-side object model (CSOM) DLLs.
You can download the SP2016 Client Components SDK from the following location:

Hi Stefan, We just found out that the Project Server specific assemblies are missing from the SDK that you’re referencing in your post. Is there any reason for this or is it just an oversight? It would be great if you [MSFT] provided a package that includes everything.
Thanks, Thomas

Hi Raj,
the SP2013 client components have not been tested against Windows Server 2019 and are therefor not supported as well.

Hi Stefan, there is a Microsoft.SharePoint2019.CSOM available at https://www.nuget.org/packages/Microsoft.SharePoint2019.CSOM/16.0.10337.12109. Is this version prefered over Microsoft.SharePoint2016.CSOM when it comes to migrating application from SP2016 to SP SE? Though https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=51679 says zhis SDK can also be used with SharePoint Server 2019 and Subscription Edition as well….
thanks, Vaqar

Hi Vaqar,
the SP2016 API will work with SP2019 and SE but it will only give you access to methods and properties which existed in CSOM in SP2016.
The newer CSOM libraries for SP2019 have been updated to included additional methods and properties added in the later version.
Cheers,
Stefan
