Does this minimap require me to add layer first through customized room template

No, the minimap should work even without custom tilemap layers. However,  you'll usually need to create a Unity layer for the minimap to work. The term "layer" is used multiple times in the Unity ecosystem so it might sometimes not be clear which "layer meaning" is used.
