Apple Maps now available to embed into websites with MapKit JS

<div class="feat-image">(https://9to5mac.files.wordpress.com/2018/06/apple-mapkit-js.png?w=1442)</div><p>The Apple Maps app didn’t get any major changes in iOS 12, but the MapKit team announced at WWDC that they are officially launching MapKit as a web framework for others to use. Google Maps is incredibly popular as an embedded map for other web services, and now Apple is trying to take a slice of that pie. MapKit JS is the same map component that Apple uses in many of its web properties, including Find My iPhone on iCloud.com, and the WWDC 2018 site (https://developer.apple.com/wwdc/more/).</p>
<p>The Apple MapKit JS library is launching in beta this week. It mirrors the MapKit API available to native iOS apps, with Apple Maps iconic cartography and data sources.</p>
