The App is developed using Android Studio and should pretty much work out-of-the-box when you clone the Git repository and open the project with Android Studio.
The only exception is that you need to obtain some free API keys for the different data sources that
EVMap uses and put them into the app in the form of a resource file called apikeys.xml under
app/src/main/res/values. You can find more information on which API keys are necessary for which
features and how they can be obtained in our documentation page.
There are two different build flavors, google and foss, where only the google variant uses
Google Maps data and provides the Android Auto integration. The foss variant only uses Mapbox data
and should run on devices without Google Play Services.
We also have a special documentation page on how to test the Android Auto app.
