GatheringLocationAutocompleteController

GatheringLocationAutocompleteController

GatheringLocationAutocompleteController

Provides Google Places Autocomplete for gathering location input fields using the classic google.maps.places.Autocomplete API.

Note: We use the classic API instead of PlaceAutocompleteElement because the new web component API doesn't expose selected place data programmatically. The classic API provides reliable place_changed events and getPlace() method.
