The Huawei site kit is a blessing to most app developers today. This is especially true with apps that are focused on delivering geographical location-based services to their users.
With the site kit, you can provide all users of the app a great way to explore services offered in different places. The main problem will be learning how to integrate the site kit into your app.
Before we go on to explain how this can be done, let’s look at some of the capabilities that the site kit can provide to your users.
Search Suggestions
The site kit can help integrate the search suggestion features. This brings up suggestions as the users type in what they are looking for. It reduces the stress of actually typing everything you want. This leads to a wonderful experience
Place Search
As if the search suggestions weren’t amazing enough, it also comes with a place search feature. This allows you to provide your users with a list of places you might want.
This also works when you search for places nearby.
Now, let’s talk about how you can integrate your app into the Huawei site kit
How to Integrate the Huawei Site Kit
So the first thing you have to do is to head over to the codelab. Once you are there, you will have to create a place-based app. You can do this in the AppGallery.
Once this has been done, the next step is to head over to the development documents which can be found on the Huawei developer’s website. There, you’re going to find the sample code which is needed.
Once you have been able to do this, you can integrate the Huawei site kit into your app using the SDK. This will then allow you to develop the options needed to make a search.
How Do You Even Get Started?
Wondering how you can even get started in the first place? Well, your first point of call will be the Huawei’s developer’s website. You will need to register. The registration process will largely depend on whether you are a single individual or a company.
If you are an individual, you will have to submit proof of identity. For companies though, the process is a bit different. Companies will have to submit a DUNS number. If you do not have one, you can get one quickly through Huawei. However, you will have to pay a small fee for it. Considering your option, it’s worth the hassle.
Once you do that, you should have access to all that you need to make this happen. It’s really there for the taking.
Conclusion
So there you have it! Getting your site kite all set up for your app is not difficult. You just have to make sure you do the right thing. The steps towards integration will allow you to achieve that much more.
With the side kit running on your app, services you always wanted will be readily available to all your users. That is definitely something to look forward to.
