Mapbox Navigation #2472

Closed allthetime closed 1 year ago

allthetime commented 1 year ago

Hi, not seeing anything in the docs, is navigation / directions supported for this library?

If not, I think I'll be developing it, curious if there are any guidelines for adding new capabilities...

Thanks

@allthetime We built our own Turn by turn navigation using this library and I can say that it took a lot of time to finesse the details (specially testing on all devices on Android was a big hassle). I would recommend checking out this library before you proceed with building your own navigation UI.

@danidaryaweesh thanks, I'll definitely use that for reference at least.

FYI, Mapbox recently (a few days ago) announced and launched this:

Navigation SDK – Drop-In UI enables our customers to launch their applications and go to market faster. Mapbox has invested years of research and design in delivering an elegant and easy-to-use drop-in UI. With this new turnkey UI, developers are able to access a pre-built navigation layout composed of standalone core navigation and UI components responsible for delivering and presenting location and guidance data. Navigation SDK offers a simplified layout for setup and implementation, out-of-the-box functionality, and the ability to customize to meet our customers unique brands and specific use cases.

Thanks for the tip @allthetime ! I will check it out. I looked at it briefly and it seems that we will have to use java/kotlin & swift native code in order to get it to work. Definitely worth a try though.

:thinking: @allthetime, this is rather a question than an issue
