A React hook that wraps the Google Maps Places Autocomplete API, letting developers build custom place-suggestion search bars and forms. It also provides geocoding utilities to convert place IDs into addresses and coordinates.
Use cases
- add place autocomplete to a react search bar
- build a custom address input with google places suggestions
- geocode a place id to lat/lng in react
- implement location search dropdown in a react form
- integrate google maps places api without the default widget
When to choose
- you use React and want full control over the autocomplete UI
- you need Google Places suggestions plus geocoding in one hook
- you want a lightweight, typed alternative to Google's default autocomplete widget
When to avoid
- you don't use React
- you need autocomplete for providers other than Google Maps
- you need actively maintained software with dedicated maintainers
