Android for Cars lets you create app experiences that display weather maps and
relevant weather information to drivers.

The templates in the Android for Cars App Library are driving-optimized and
allow you to show relevant weather information in your app. The apps you design
with these templates can work for both Android Auto and AAOS.

In the Weather category, your app can draw its own map to show weather relevant
information such as temperature, wind, and radar overlays.

## Get started

To learn how to design apps with the templates in the Android for Cars App
Library, see [Build apps with templates](https://developer.android.com/design/ui/cars/guides/foundations/overview).
| **Note:** For more details on how to build this experience, see [Build weather apps
| for cars](https://developer.android.com/training/cars/apps/weather).

## UX requirements

Weather apps need to meet the [global requirements for templated apps](https://developer.android.com/design/ui/cars/guides/ux-requirements/overview#general), as
well as the requirements for [weather apps](https://developer.android.com/design/ui/cars/guides/ux-requirements/overview#weather) and for the [specific
templates](https://developer.android.com/design/ui/cars/guides/ux-requirements/overview#templates) used in the task flows.
