Hi! I'm Ruanna, from the TomTom Developer Relations team. Every month on our Developer Blog, we publish a content roundup of all of our tutorials from TomTom Developers, along with some of our favorite external articles, videos, and resources that we enjoyed and shared. Enjoy!

June flew by! June was a month where we celebrated the stories of some amazing software developers, from Women in Engineering Day to Pride month. Take a look at some of our favorite resources from June and discover what our developer advocates and location experts were up to, to help you make the most of location tech in your apps and beyond.

HOW TO OPTIMIZE YOUR ROUTES FOR DISTANCE WITH THE TOMTOM ROUTING API

Did you know you can optimize routes and stop-overs for distance using the Routing API? If you need to save on fuel (or battery), this is a great option for delivery trucks and bikes. In this video, we will experiment with the "computeBestOrder" parameter which sorts the waypoints of your route by distance internally. Check out the tutorial here!

BUILD A TRIP PLANNER FOR TRUCKS WITH THE TOMTOM ROUTING APIS

Calculating where to rest on a long truck trip can be tedious, since there are restrictions to be followed, traffic to be avoided, and more. Here is where the TomTom Routing API can help. In this video, learn how to make a truck trip planner – not just creating the route among waypoints, but also selecting those stopovers based on how long you can drive between rests. Watch it now!
