Google Maps Flutter Integration

A quickstart project that :

• Requests Location Permission from the user
• If the user grants the permission :
  • It zooms in the user's location
• If they decline access
  • It zooms in a default location
• When they press a floatingActionButton , it points the camera in their location

Use your own Google Maps API Key inside /android/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml file !

Only tested on Android (Emulator & Real Device)

Demo

Why?

It is an extremely important feature for many map based apps and ,despite that, there are not many tutorials. This is a more complete integration that uses the futureBuilder to update the map after the location has been granted. Moreover , when I myself tried asking for permissions I encountered problems with the documentation of many packages and I found that , at least in my case, their tutorials did not work. Explained in the comments of the source code.

Packages Used

• google_maps_flutter
• location
• permission_handler

Any advice/correction is encouraged. I am still new to Flutter and I want to learn. I hope this repo helps someone else as well
