Disable the Default UI

Page Summary

This example demonstrates how to create a Google Map with all default UI controls disabled, such as zoom controls and the Street View icon.
The map is initialized using the disableDefaultUI: true option within the map options.
Sample code is provided in both TypeScript and JavaScript, along with accompanying HTML and CSS for styling and structure.
Users can interact with the example through provided links for JSFiddle.net and Google Cloud Shell or clone the sample using Git and Node.js for local execution.

This example creates a map with the default UI controls disabled (for example, it has no zoom controls or Street View icon).
