Auto populate location using current geo location

[khuze]

Can we auto populate the current location by asking them to share geolocation.?

[smartclash]

If no body's working on this, can I take this up?

@smartclash -Are you using - https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/geocoding/overview ?

This feature of asking the user for their location is implemented in Maps Tab on results page.

@khuze can you share the use case for this feature?

@rakeshgunduka even am struggling with the use case here. We do want users to come to home page and not go directly to the resource card. So this feature doesnt make too much sense for me to do as soon as someone comes to home page. May be we can have a user's district(based on browser location) automatically get set once a user picks the state?

The idea was that on the homepage, instead of someone having to pick a state / city, basis of their current location, we could auto populate it.

@khuze can plz provide a sample screenshot of how home page cud look after this change? Thr is no auto population concept on homepage. If u autopopulate something u go on the stateslug page directly. Thr wont remain a homepage based on ur suggestion
