Troubleshooting

If your Google Maps view is grayed out and For development purposes only or any error message is displayed, you'll need to provide a Google Maps API key, you can get a free trial here (the key has to have access to the Maps JavaScript API). After you've obtained your key, you can simply copy and paste it into api_key.txt file located inside your extracted folder. After your free trial has expired, you can still use the Google Maps API for free, as long as you don't exceed 200$ a month (which should be more than enough for personal use) or you can always use OpenStreetMap for free without providing any additional stuff.
