sample programs for Garmin watch with location and compass

TheDahut 16 days ago

Hello,

I would like to create an application for a Garmin watch.

Record a GPS coordinate and a heading (using the compass).

Create a virtual corridor from this point and in the direction of the heading.

Finally, provide the real-time distance between the actual position and the virtual corridor.

Where can I find sample programs?

They are included in the Connect IQ SDK: https://developer.garmin.com/connect-iq/sdk/

Thank you trux,

But I don't know the software code for Watch (and I do not know for mobile application).
To learn, I would like to start by playing to modify code step by step until do something acceptable.
Except the first code with the monkey picture I do not have other sample with all files.
I could be happy to have others exemple, and the best with using Toybox.position and the compass (Toybox.Sensor.MagnetometerData ?).

Besides the SDK examples, you can also check the CIQ app store, and look for similar apps, and then look whether the developer published their source code. Although not common, there are some developers keeping their source code open.

You can also browse GitHub, or the web in general - there are also some publicly available CIQ projects. Or you can ask on the CIQ Developer forum, whether someone has an app fitting your needs, or whether they would share suitable source code, or write the app for you, or you can hire a developer doing the work for you.
