jzy3d builder cannot be resolved error on eclipse

Question

So, I've recently downloaded (via Maven) jzy3d library so that I can translate and improve an existing program of mine from JS to Java, and to get a handle on the new library I was trying some examples available on the library site but, as the title shows I keep getting the "Builder cannot be resolved" error. I've tried to add the org.jzy3d.plot3d.builder.Builder import but also without success, as it returns a non used import alert.

This is my code:

package randomProjects;

import org.jzy3d.chart.Chart;
import org.jzy3d.chart.ChartLauncher;
import org.jzy3d.colors.Color;
import org.jzy3d.colors.ColorMapper;
import org.jzy3d.colors.colormaps.ColorMapRainbow;
import org.jzy3d.maths.Range;
import org.jzy3d.plot3d.builder.Mapper;
import org.jzy3d.plot3d.builder.concrete.OrthonormalGrid;
import org.jzy3d.plot3d.primitives.Shape;
import org.jzy3d.plot3d.rendering.canvas.Quality;

public class SurfPlotTest_JZY3D {

    public static void main(String[] args){
        
        // Define a function to plot
        Mapper mapper = new Mapper() {
            public double f(double x, double y) {
                return 10 * Math.sin(x / 10) * Math.cos(y / 20) * x;
            }
        };

        // Define range and precision for the function to plot
        Range range = new Range(-150, 150);
        int steps = 50;

        // Create a surface drawing that function;
        Shape surface = Builder.buildOrthonormal(new OrthonormalGrid(range, steps, range, steps), mapper);
        surface.setColorMapper(new ColorMapper(new ColorMapRainbow(), surface.getBounds().getZmin(), surface.getBounds().getZmax(), new Color(1, 1, 1, .5f)));
        surface.setFaceDisplayed(true);
        surface.setWireframeDisplayed(false);
        surface.setWireframeColor(Color.BLACK);

        // Create a chart and add the surface
        Chart chart = new Chart(Quality.Advanced);
        chart.getScene().getGraph().add(surface);
        ChartLauncher.openChart(chart);
        
    }
    
}

And this is the error message:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.Error: Unresolved compilation problems: 
    Builder cannot be resolved
    The field Quality.Advanced is not visible

    at randomProjects.SurfPlotTest_JZY3D.main(SurfPlotTest_JZY3D.java:30)

I also find important to mention that there is another error in the program at line #37, that I've tried fixing exchanging Quality.Advanced by Quality.Advanced() , but again, without any success what so ever.

A bit of an update in the hope of an answer

If I use the manually imported project files, also available in the library site, I don't get the builder error, but instead when compiling it returns the following error.

The project: org.jzy3d-0.9 which is referenced by the classpath, does not exist.

And this is the example code present in the project

package org.jzy3d.demos.surface;

import org.jzy3d.chart.Chart;
import org.jzy3d.chart.controllers.keyboard.camera.CameraKeyController;
import org.jzy3d.colors.Color;
import org.jzy3d.colors.ColorMapper;
import org.jzy3d.colors.colormaps.ColorMapRainbow;
import org.jzy3d.demos.AbstractDemo;
import org.jzy3d.demos.DemoLauncher;
import org.jzy3d.maths.Range;
import org.jzy3d.plot3d.builder.Builder;
import org.jzy3d.plot3d.builder.Mapper;
import org.jzy3d.plot3d.builder.concrete.OrthonormalGrid;
import org.jzy3d.plot3d.primitives.Shape;
import org.jzy3d.plot3d.rendering.canvas.Quality;

public class ColorWaveDemo extends AbstractDemo {
    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
        DemoLauncher.openDemo(new ColorWaveDemo());
    }

    public ColorWaveDemo() {
    }

    @Override
    public void init() {
        // Define a function to plot
        Mapper mapper = new Mapper() {
            public double f(double x, double y) {
                return x * Math.sin(x * y);
            }
        };

        // Define range and precision for the function to plot
        Range range = new Range(-3, 3);
        int steps = 80;

        // Create the object to represent the function over the given range.
        final Shape surface = Builder.buildOrthonormal(new OrthonormalGrid(range, steps, range, steps), mapper);
        surface.setColorMapper(new ColorMapper(new ColorMapRainbow(), surface.getBounds().getZmin(), surface.getBounds().getZmax(), new Color(1, 1, 1, .5f)));
        surface.setFaceDisplayed(true);
        surface.setWireframeDisplayed(false);

        // Create a chart
        chart = new Chart(Quality.Advanced, getCanvasType());
        chart.getScene().getGraph().add(surface);
        chart.addController(new CameraKeyController());
    }
}

Consider me a complete noob in importing libraries via Maven or otherwise, I'm doing all this to get a handle and learn how to, so I would appreciate a detailed answer. If needed I can also include my.pom file.

The tutorial page from the website is quite outdated. You may find easier to use the tutorials that are embedded in the library , eg this surface example .

The readme of this module should help as well.
