The Mapzen Android SDK is a thin wrapper that packages up everything you need to use Mapzen services in your Android applications. It also simplifies setup, installation, API key management and generally makes your life better.

# Eraser Map

An [open source](https://github.com/mapzen/eraser-map) privacy-focused reference application built entirely using Mapzen services. With Eraser Map you can see a canonical implementation of mapping, search, and turn-by-turn navigation.

Beta builds of Eraser Map (plus the SDK demo apps and other science projects) are available on the [Mapzen Android download page](http://android.mapzen.com/).

# Building From Source

If you would like to build the Mapzen Android SDK directly from master, we recommend using Android Studio 3.0. We upgraded our gradle build scripts to take advantage of the [new dependency configurations](https://developer.android.com/studio/build/gradle-plugin-3-0-0-migration.html#new_configurations) in gradle which means that if you would like to use earlier versions of Android Studio, you will have to revert to the deprecated configuration.
