React-google-maps: Google is undefined

[amandapouget]

When running the example shown here (copy/paste):

The following error is displayed:

It's unclear in the documentation how to make it... "wait to render???".... the DrawingManager with the global google object which is not set until the GoogleAPI comes back.

I think the google object is attached to the window, so try using window.google.maps....

if you're using create react app, use window.google
