As of google_maps_flutter_platform_interface: 2.8.0
The method BitmapDescriptor.fromBytes has been deprecated in favor of BitmapDescriptor.bytes and BytesMapBitmap.
The changes in this pull request include

  • The changes added in the example and the code focus on updating the package to flutter 3 and above
  • Updating the minimum dart SDK to 3.0
  • Replacing the use of BitmapDescriptor.bytes to BitmapDescriptor.fromBytes .
  • Updating the size of widgets on the example because the BitmapDescriptor.bytes solves a platform specific bug with the marker size , this fix in turn make the markers too big

Consideration for migration added on the README with the following text

Migrating to 1.0

The update to the google_maps_flutter_platform_interface: ^2.8.0 changes that, Deprecate BitmapDescriptor.fromBytes in favor of BitmapDescriptor.bytes and BytesMapBitmap.
