:wave: Welcome to the TomTom Maps SDK course!

Hello and welcome to this Learning Lab where I will walk you through creating an Android application that displays a TomTom map using the TomTom Maps SDK for Android.

By the end of this course you will have an application that displays a TomTom map. All these running on your Android phone :iphone:

Get started

In general you have two options for using a development environment:

• Android Studio or
• Terminal + Gradle

For simplicity reasons this course will provide you instructions on using the terminal and Gradle.

Apart from that you will need an Android phone so that you will be able to install the creatd application on your own phone.

Now let's cover the pre-requisites.

Step 1: Build the project locally

:keyboard: Activity: Clone the repository and build the project

1. Open your terminal
2. Change directories into a location where you want to keep this project
3. Clone this repository:

   git clone https://github.com/szczepanczyk/lab-maps-sdk-android-display-a-map

4. Move into the repository's directory:

   cd lab-maps-sdk-android-display-a-map

5. In your repository folder, run the following build command:

   ./gradlew build

   This command will download Gradle, pull dependencies, build the sample app and run some tests.

In upcoming steps you will learn how to install the app on your phone and extend the app with many more features.
