Idea Map
https://github.com/ideabreed/idea-map
The purpose of this library is to combine features of google map
such as map, marker and corresponding info window rendering to a single API call. This simplifies implementing google map into your project while not having to remember all the associated API calls provided by it. Just include the script tag into your project and initialize and object of ideaMap
class with appropriate parameters while rendering the map. While instantiating the ideaMap
class, there are certain parameters that you need to pass according to your requirement. Let’s go over them, Here, we’ve passed in an object while initializing the map.
