Good day, tell me how to add a search button and actually implement the search mechanism. Just like it is implemented here https://snazzymaps.com/style/38/shades-of-grey. There is a search button on the map in the upper right corner. Thanks in advance.

Colleague, there is a direct example in the OFF documentation:
https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/j...
But this is only on the frontend, if you want to do something more complicated and search and display something on the server, then you to help https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/g...
But remember that no more than 2500 requests per day are free

A good open source project Nominatim can be responsible for finding the coordinates of a place by address or back of an address by coordinates . You can make a local version of the database. Usually he is fed OSM cards like these . You can use other sources, including proprietary ones. If you have specific ideas, please contact the authors of the project. They must be happy to help and join forces.
