At the ongoing WWDC, Apple has announced a major change related to Apple Maps. The company has made available to third-party developers the ability to embed Apple Maps on websites, something which can be done using the newly-launched JavaScript library MapKit JS (which is currently in beta).
Here's what Apple's official website says:
MapKit JS brings Apple Maps to the web. This new JavaScript library lets you add interactive maps to webpages — complete with annotations, overlays, and interfaces to Apple Maps services such as Search and Directions — to enable rich interactions.
Developers will be able to select a specific area, and users will be able to search for locations and routes in that particular area. Of course, the library - which provides a free daily limit of 250,000 map initializations and 25,000 service calls - offers several other features as well.
