Explore updating Google Maps integration

Open abraham opened this issue 4 years ago • 5 comments

map-block renders a map highlighting the location of the venue. It's currently implemented with @polymer/google-map which is not recommend anymore. There is a new @googlemaps/js-api-loader package announced.

  • [ ] Create a proof of concept (the code doesn't need to be perfect or complete) of switching to @googlemaps/js-api-loader.
  • [ ] With the knowledge gained from creating the PoC, should the conversion be completed? Is the new approach better/simpler code?
  • [ ] Is there improvements to size/performance of the site?
  • [ ] Is there a different approach or tool that would be better to switch to?

@akshitarora921 I've updated the issue description. It's basically to explore if the new package described in the blog post would be a better approach than how maps are currently implemented.
