Add a map using HTML

The following example shows how to add a 3d map using only HTML and CSS, not requiring any JavaScript.

CSS

/* 
 * Always set the map height explicitly to define the size of the div element
 * that contains the map. 
 */
html,
gmp-map-3d {
    height: 100%;
}

html,
body {
    height: 100%;
    margin: 0;
    padding: 0;
}

HTML

<html>
    <head>
        <title>Map</title>
        <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="./style.css" />
        <script
            async
            src="https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?loading=async&key=GOOGLE_MAPS_API_KEY&libraries=maps3d"></script>
    </head>
    <body>
        <gmp-map-3d center="37.7704,-122.3985,500" tilt="67.5" mode="hybrid">
        </gmp-map-3d>
    </body>
</html>
