Just follow steps below to integrate GLMap framework into your application.
Functions and structure
To keep applications lightweight we divided framework to 3 major components: GLMap, GLRoute, GLSearch. No need to include navigation or search into your project if you don't use it.
On iOS to make application fast each component published as dynamic framework and as static library. Names of static pods is GLMapStatic, GLRouteStatic, GLSearchStatic. When linked with static library, linker is able to remove all unused code and optimize application even further.
Swift modules and Android native libraries is always compiled as dynamic libraries.
Some sytax sugar for Swift is added as GLMapSwift extension. It is open source and available on github: https://github.com/GLMap/GLMapSwift 
iOS
Cocoapods
Run pod repo update to make CocoaPods aware of the latest available GLMap versions.
Add GLMap into your Podfile
Podfile
platform :ios, '8.0'
use_frameworks!
​
target 'TargetName' do
    pod 'GLMap'
    pod 'GLRoute' # if you need navgation
    pod 'GLSearch' # if you need search 
end
Run pod install in project directory
Use the .xcworkspace file generated by CocoaPods to work on your project. 
Carthage
All components is published in Carthage as binary-only frameworks.
To add it into your project just add binary dependency into your Cartfile
Cartfile
binary "https://user.getyourmap.com/downloads/free/GLMap.json"
binary "https://user.getyourmap.com/downloads/free/GLRoute.json" # if you need navigation
binary "https://user.getyourmap.com/downloads/free/GLSearch.json" # if you need search
Unfortunately there is no way to add resource dependencies into Carhage, and you'll need to add them manually into your project.
GLMap requires world map and default style to work correctly. Download links to GLMapWorldMap and GLMapDefaultStyle you could find inside .json files and in user cabinet.
For convenience we published all releases info json files:
https://user.getyourmap.com/downloads/free/GLMap.json
https://user.getyourmap.com/downloads/free/GLMapStatic.json
https://user.getyourmap.com/downloads/free/GLRoute.json
https://user.getyourmap.com/downloads/free/GLRouteStatic.json
https://user.getyourmap.com/downloads/free/GLSearch.json
https://user.getyourmap.com/downloads/free/GLSearchStatic.json
https://user.getyourmap.com/downloads/free/GLMapDefaultStyle.json
https://user.getyourmap.com/downloads/free/GLMapWorldMap.json
Use framework from Objective-C
Initialize GLMapManager inside AppDelegate. And set your API key from user cabinet.
AppDelegate.m
#import <GLMap/GLMap.h>
@implementation AppDelegate
​
- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions {
    [GLMapManager sharedManager].apiKey = <#API key#>;
    return YES;
}
Then add GLMapView into view hierarchy from code or using Interface Builder.
ViewController.m
#import <GLMap/GLMap.h>
​
@implementation ViewController
-(void)viewDidLoad {
    GLMapView *mapView = [[GLMapView alloc] initWithFrame:self.view.bounds];
    [self.view addSubview:mapView];
}
Now you're ready to write your app with GLMap framework. Consider our Demo App as source of examples and code snippets.
​Objective-C Demo App / iOS API Documentation​
Use framework from Swift
Initialize GLMapManager inside AppDelegate. And set your API key from user cabinet.
AppDelegate.swift
import GLMap
import GLMapSwift
​
@UIApplicationMain
class AppDelegate: UIResponder, UIApplicationDelegate {
    func application(application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [NSObject: AnyObject]?) -> Bool {
        GLMapManager.shared.apiKey = <#API key#>
        return true
    }
}
Then add GLMapView into view hierarchy from code or using Interface Builder.
ViewController.swift
class ViewController: UIViewController {    
    override func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad()
​
        let mapView = GLMapView(frame: self.view.bounds)
        self.view.addSubview(mapView)
    }
}
Now you're ready to write your app with GLMap framework. Consider our Demo App as source of examples and code snippets.

Android
Maven
Add repository and dependency into module level build.gradle file.
build.gradle
repositories {
    // Any other repositories
    maven { url 'https://maven.getyourmap.com/artifactory/libs' }
}
​
dependencies {
    // Any other dependencies
    implementation'com.getyourmap:glmap:1.1.0'
    implementation'com.getyourmap:glroute:1.1.0' // if you need navigation
    implementation'com.getyourmap:glsearch:1.1.0' // if you need search
}
Use framework from Java
Add GLMapView into layout file
<com.getyourmap.glmap.GLMapView
    android:id="@+id/map_view"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:gravity="center"
    android:keepScreenOn="true"/>
Initialize GLMapManager inside Application subclass. And set your API key from user cabinet.
YourApp.java
public class YourApp extends Application
{
@Override
    public void onCreate()
    {
        super.onCreate();
        GLMapManager.Initialize(this, <API_KEY>, null);
        
        // If you're going to use GLSearch you should also call 
        // GLSearch.Initialize(this); 
        // to let it load it's resources. 
    }
}
Then configure GLMapView.
YourActivity.java
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
​
    // set asset manager, and load style from bundle inside assets
    GLMapView mapView = (GLMapView) this.findViewById(R.id.map_view);
    mapView.loadStyle(this.getAssets(), "DefaultStyle.bundle");
}
Now you're ready to write your app with GLMap framework. Consider our Demo App as source of examples and code snippets.
