Linkplay Music Kit is the app side SDK for Linkplay Home Audio solution；you can use it to implement our solution into your product.
MusicKit mainly solves 2 issues：

When user bring a product home, the procedure is as follows:
OOBE
Out-of-box experience. The experience of this procedure should be as simple and stable as possible.
As we can see, the procdeure is from hardware to software, from bottom to higher:
| Procedure | Layer |
|---|---|
| Wi-Fi Setup | Data link layer |
| First OTA | Firmware system |
| Initial Device Settings | System software settings, like timezone, language, etc. |
| Service Setup | Application layer settings, all software services settings |
Wi-Fi Setup
The first step is connecting device to internet. We have the following ways for you to setup the Wi-Fi:
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| BLE Setup | If your device supports BLE, then you can choose this way |
| SoftAP Setup | If your device only has Wi-Fi module, then you can choose this way |
When user brought product home, maybe it has been a long time after the MP. To bring better user experience to customer, the first OTA can not be skipped.
- Initial Device Settings
After hardware and firmware are all in best status, then it's time to do some localized work, such as:
- Language
- Timezone
- Period for silient OTA

Then, the last step is to setup the application layer service:
- Music services, such as Tunein, Amazon Music
