The Places UI Kit component library lets you bring the familiar Google Maps user experience for Places to your apps and web pages, using the same data that powers the Places API. It includes a set of individual UI components that can be used independently, together, or in conjunction with other Google Maps Platform APIs to deliver a Places-rich experience with minimal cost and code.
The Places UI Kit includes the following HTML elements for rendering Places data:
Place Details
The Place Details component is a customizable HTML element that renders details for a selected place, defined either by a Place ID or by a set of latitude and longitude coordinates.
Place List
The Place List component renders a list of places in response to either a Places Text Search or a Places Nearby Search.
Elevation
The Elevation component renders elevation data as a numerical value for a single point, or as a visual plot for a path.
