title: Is there a map control for Javascript UWP apps?
body: <p>Is there any way to include maps in UWP Windows apps written in Javascript?</p>
  
  <p>The obvious options:</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>UWP map control <a href="https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-gb/windows/uwp/maps-and-location/controls-map" rel="nofollow">https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-gb/windows/uwp/maps-and-location/controls-map</a> ; all the documentation suggests this is only for XAML apps</li>
  <li>Legacy Windows / Windows Phone 8.x Bing maps SDK <a href="https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh846481.aspx" rel="nofollow">https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh846481.aspx</a> ; these work but are based on the v7.0 AJAX control which will stop working in 2017</li>
  <li>Bing maps AJAX v8.0 or other web services; these are intended for websites and rely on externally hosted javascript, so won't work in apps</li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>Thank you.</p>
