Get Code

{: #Get_Code}

When you have completed the configuration and setup of your project with your selected capabilities, you can download the code that enables you to run the application. Your downloaded project is pre-configured with the required SDK dependencies and credentials for each capability that you configured.

You will need to complete credentials for services that are not configurable in your downloaded project. The README.md file for the starter project contains instructions. View the README.md file in a Markdown viewer to complete the setup.
