Good question!
I originally developed this project because none of the existing solutions offered a performant or usable api for rendering many markers on a map and being able to do things like filter them.
It looks like angular-google-maps now has a markers
directive which uses a very similar approach to angular-gm and probably closes this feature gap. I haven't taken a close look at the project since it was rewritten so it may be that angular-google-maps covers all of the functionality I have implemented so far.
This project is still maintained but only when I have time, and mostly according to my needs. angular-google-maps probably has a lot more resources behind it so it's probably the better choice unless your use cases line up well with mine, or you are willing to help maintain it.
The README mentions that this project was inspired by Inspired by Nicolas Laplante's angular-google-maps, which apparently is now https://github.com/angular-ui/angular-google-maps.
What exactly are the differences? Is this project still being maintained? Last commit here is 6 months ago, while angular-google-maps is much more actively developed.
