What is the difference between this plugin and Google Maps JavaScript API v3?

Google Maps JavaScript API v3 works on any platforms, but it does not work if device is offline.

This plugin uses three different APIs:

In Android and iOS applications, this plugin displays native Google Maps views, which is faster than Google Maps JavaScript API v3. And it even works if the device is offline.

In Browser platform, this plugin displays JS map views (Google Maps JavaScript API v3). It should work as PWA (progressive web application), but the device has to be online.

In order to work for all platforms, this plugin provides own API instead of each original APIs. You can write your code similar to the Google Maps JavaScript API v3.

How does this plugin work (Android, iOS)?

This plugin generates native map views, and puts them under the browser.

The map views are not HTML elements. This means that they are not a <div> or anything HTML related. But you can specify the size and position of the map view using its containing <div>.

This plugin changes the background to transparent in your application. Then the plugin detects your touch position, which is either meant for the native map or an html element (which can be on top of your map, or anywhere else on the screen).

The benefit of this plugin is the ability to automatically detect which HTML elements are over the map or not.

For instance, in the image below, say you tap on the header div (which is over the map view). The plugin will detect whether your tap is for the header div or for the map view and then pass the touch event appropriately.

This means you can use the native Google Maps views similar to HTML elements.
