Google Maps SDK Swift

Well... I can get current location by Apple Maps. Unfortunately, I need to do the same by Google Maps. In this case I have downloaded Google Maps SDK from the google website and tried to follow their steps. But... I'm confused.

How should I install this SDK to the XCode project and how can I use it in Swift? Not Objective C. Just Swift. Please, help.

Hi Artem,

Have a read of the below article written by Ron Kliffer who explains how to use a bridging header to import the Google Maps SDK into a Swift project without any need to use Objective-C.
