Gets a Mapbox map running in a Jetpack Compose Android app: add an access token in an XML resource, set min SDK 21, add Mapbox Maven and two Compose dependencies, then render an interactive map. Uses Mapbox Location Helper and the Standard Style Playground to pick viewport and theme, adds a circle and custom image point annotations, parses a GeoJSON assets file with three coffee shops, shows toasts on tap, and implements a working fly to recenter animation.
