Where should I get started?

Up until now I’ve been using Corona for mostly game creation and other simple little tools.

Now I want to build a little more advanced app. I want the app to search for the users location and return a list of the nearest parking facilities based on this xml file.

Is there a tutorial already on how to do this? If not, I’d appreciate some basic direction on how I can gets started :slight_smile:

Thanks in advance

Have you looked at this tutorial on using XML files with Corona?
