	libraryDependencies += "com.snowplowanalytics" %% "snowplow-scala-tracker-core" % "0.7.0"
	libraryDependencies += "com.snowplowanalytics" %% "snowplow-scala-tracker-emitter-id" % "0.7.0"

or using Maven:

	<dependency>
	    <groupId>com.snowplowanalytics</groupId>
	    <artifactId>snowplow-scala-tracker_2.13</artifactId>
	    <version>0.7.0</version>
	</dependency>

or Gradle:

	dependencies {
	    ...
	    // Snowplow Scala Tracker
	    compile 'com.snowplowanalytics:snowplow-scala-tracker-core_2.13:0.7.0'
	    compile 'com.snowplowanalytics:snowplow-scala-tracker-emitter-id_2.13:0.7.0'
	}
