Use the root package for SdkConfig.
device-sdk:0.3.1 declares SdkConfig in com.maxmind.device. The current import cannot compile with this SDK version.

(Claude Opus 5.5, replying on behalf of @oschwald) I checked this at the 0.3.1 tag. device-sdk/src/main/java/com/maxmind/device/config/SdkConfig.kt starts with package com.maxmind.device.config, and no other SdkConfig exists in the repository. The 0.3.1 source confirms com.maxmind.device.config.SdkConfig is the correct import, so I am leaving the change as it is.

The "Query the web service" Java example (line 218) does not compile against 5.2.0. It puts WebServiceClient in a try-with-resources block, but 5.0.0 removed the Closeable implementation from WebServiceClient. The GeoIP2-java CHANGELOG says: "BREAKING: The deprecated WebServiceClient.close() method has been removed along with the Closeable interface implementation."
javac fails with incompatible types: try-with-resources not applicable to variable type. Suggest that the example creates the client without try-with-resources, as the GeoIP2-java 5.2.0 README does.

Not changed in this PR, but related: the Java client-setup snippet (line 103) declares WebServiceClient client twice in one block. If a user copies the block as shown, javac fails with variable client is already defined.
The C# block (line 92, var client) and the JavaScript block (line 116, const client) have the same problem. Suggest a separate snippet for GeoLite, a commented-out alternative, or a different variable name.

Fixed in 8e36c57. The C#, Java, and JavaScript snippets now show the GeoLite declaration as a commented alternative. The page explains how to replace the GeoIP declaration. The Java setup example compiles, and the JavaScript setup snippet passes node --check.

The page says "A callback-based API is also available for Java compatibility" (line 82). The device-android 0.3.1 README says Java callers must add a Kotlin bridge, because the callback receives Kotlin's Result<T> value class. That class has limited Java interop.
A Java-only app that calls collectAndSend(callback) gets a boxed Result and cannot read trackingToken without the bridge. Suggest that the page says this, or links to the bridge example in the SDK README.

This PR fixes the SdkConfig import, but the Kotlin snippets (line 71) still omit androidx.lifecycle.lifecycleScope and kotlinx.coroutines.launch. A pasted snippet fails with Unresolved reference: lifecycleScope / launch.
SDK 0.3.1 also no longer brings in lifecycle-runtime-ktx, core-ktx, or kotlinx-coroutines-android. Suggest that the page adds the imports and says the app must declare those dependencies.

Fixed in f218e46. Both coroutine examples now import androidx.lifecycle.lifecycleScope and kotlinx.coroutines.launch. Both Gradle snippets declare lifecycle-runtime-ktx and kotlinx-coroutines-android, using the versions from the SDK’s v0.3.1 sample app. The page also identifies the activity or fragment context. These examples do not use core-ktx APIs, so I did not add that dependency.

The page has no Requirements section. Since 0.3.0, the minimum Android API level is 27 (Android 8.1). The iOS page lists its platform requirements, so the two Device SDK pages are not consistent. Suggest a Requirements section with the minimum API level.

Nit: this install codeset is the same on databases.md and web-services.md. The minFraud codeset is the same on evaluate-a-transaction.md and report-a-transaction.md. Each version change needs 4 identical edits, and a missed file leaves two pages with different versions.
The snippet shortcode could hold each codeset once, for example assets/snippets/geoip-client-install.md and assets/snippets/minfraud-client-install.md. Existing snippets such as coordinates-warning.md already contain shortcodes.

AndroidX Lifecycle 2.11.0 compileSdk 37 Android Gradle Plugin 9.2.0 requirements lifecycle-runtime-ktx
💡 Result:
**Yes—`lifecycle-runtime-ktx:2.11.0` is the correct artifact**, and **AGP 9.2.0 is sufficient for the API 37 requirement when using Compose**.
```kotlin
dependencies {
implementation("androidx.lifecycle:lifecycle-runtime-ktx:2.11.0")
}
```
Lifecycle 2.11.0’s release notes say the Compose compile SDK was updated to API 37 and requires **AGP 9.2.0 minimum when using Compose**. The release page lists `lifecycle-runtime-ktx` at version 2.11.0. ([developer.android.com](https://developer.android.com/jetpack/androidx/releases/lifecycle?authuser=517&utm_source=openai))
AGP 9.2 supports up to API 37; its documented compatibility baseline also includes **Gradle 9.4.1** and **JDK 17**. ([developer.android.com](https://developer.android.com/build/releases/agp-9-2-0-release-notes?utm_source=openai))
**Important distinction:** the AGP 9.2.0 minimum is specified for *using Compose*. The cited release notes don’t establish that `lifecycle-runtime-ktx` by itself requires API 37 or AGP 9.2.0.

🌐 Web query:
AndroidX Lifecycle 2.11.0 official release notes compileSdk 37 AGP 9.2.0 lifecycle-runtime-ktx requirement Compose
💡 Result:
**Yes:** AndroidX Lifecycle **2.11.0** is officially released (June 17, 2026). Its release notes say Compose’s `compileSdk` update requires **AGP 9.2.0 or newer**. AGP 9.2 supports up to API 37, so use `compileSdk = 37` with that AGP version. ([developer.android.com](https://developer.android.com/jetpack/androidx/releases/lifecycle?authuser=482&utm_source=openai))
For Compose, the notes also say **Compose UI 1.7.0+ is required** for `LocalLifecycleOwner`. They do **not** establish that `lifecycle-runtime-ktx` itself is required for Compose; choose the Lifecycle artifact that provides the APIs you use. ([developer.android.com](https://developer.android.com/jetpack/androidx/releases/lifecycle?authuser=482&utm_source=openai))
**Bottom line:** the stated AGP requirement applies when using Lifecycle’s Compose artifacts; it is not a blanket requirement to add `lifecycle-runtime-ktx` to every Compose app.

Document the conditional build requirements for Lifecycle 2.11.0.
If an app also uses AndroidX Lifecycle Compose artifacts, lifecycle-runtime-ktx:2.11.0 can align them to 2.11.0. This can require compileSdk 37 and Android Gradle Plugin 9.2.0 or newer. Document this requirement, or use a compatible Lifecycle version in the examples.
Suggested documentation update
The coroutine examples below also require
`androidx.lifecycle:lifecycle-runtime-ktx` and
`org.jetbrains.kotlinx:kotlinx-coroutines-android`. Your app must declare these
dependencies because the SDK does not include them.
