+# Migrating from `@googlemaps/react-wrapper`
+
+The [`@googlemaps/react-wrapper`][npm-react-wrapper] library provides a 
+minimal wrapper for loading the Maps JavaScript API in a React Application.
+
+If you decide to migrate from using `@googlemaps/react-wrapper` to this
+library, this can be done seamlessly by using a poyfill for the `<Wrapper>`
+component.
+
+Roughly speaking, our [`<APIProvider>`][rgm-api-provider] component has the
+same function as the `<Wrapper>` component provided by
+`@googlemaps/react-wrapper`, with one major difference: While the `Wrapper`
+component will only render its children once the Google Maps JavaScript API
+has been loaded, the `APIProvider` will always render the children and use
+custom hooks like [`useApiLoadingStatus()`][rgm-use-api-loading-status] to
+handle API loading in its components.
+
+The following code shows how the `Wrapper` component can be implemented with
+this library in a fully compatible way, allowing you to use it as a
+drop-in-replacement for the `@googlemaps/react-wrapper` library.
+
+[A complete example can be found here][rgm-examples-react-wrapper-migration].
+
+```tsx title="wrapper.tsx"
+import React, {
+  FunctionComponent,
+  PropsWithChildren,
+  ReactNode,
+  useEffect
+} from 'react';
+
+import {
+  APILoadingStatus,
+  APIProvider,
+  APIProviderProps,
+  useApiLoadingStatus
+} from '@vis.gl/react-google-maps';
+
+const STATUS_MAP = {
+  [APILoadingStatus.LOADING]: 'LOADING',
+  [APILoadingStatus.LOADED]: 'SUCCESS',
+  [APILoadingStatus.FAILED]: 'FAILURE'
+} as const;
+
+type WrapperProps = PropsWithChildren<
+  {
+    apiKey: string;
+    callback?: (status: string) => void;
+    render?: (status: string) => ReactNode;
+  } & APIProviderProps
+>;
+
+export const Wrapper: FunctionComponent<WrapperProps> = ({
+  apiKey,
+  children,
+  render,
+  callback,
+  ...apiProps
+}) => {
+  return (
+    <APIProvider apiKey={apiKey} {...apiProps}>
+      <InnerWrapper render={render}>{children}</InnerWrapper>
+    </APIProvider>
+  );
+};
+
+const InnerWrapper = ({
+  callback,
+  render,
+  children
+}: PropsWithChildren<Omit<WrapperProps, 'apiKey'>>) => {
+  const status = useApiLoadingStatus();
+  const mappedStatus = STATUS_MAP[status] ?? 'LOADING';
+
+  useEffect(() => {
+    if (callback) callback(mappedStatus);
+  }, [callback, mappedStatus]);
+
+  if (status === APILoadingStatus.LOADED) return children;
+  if (render) return render(mappedStatus);
+
+  return <></>;

+# Migrating from @googlemaps/react-wrapper
+
+This is an example to show how code that was written using
+`@googlemaps/react-wrapper` can be ported to this library.
+
+## Google Maps Platform API key
+
+This example does not come with an API key. Running the examples locally requires a valid API key for the Google Maps Platform.
+See [the official documentation][get-api-key] on how to create and configure your own key.
+
+The API key has to be provided via an environment variable `GOOGLE_MAPS_API_KEY`. This can be done by creating a
+file named `.env` in the example directory with the following content:
+
+```shell title=".env"
+GOOGLE_MAPS_API_KEY="<YOUR API KEY HERE>"
+```
+
+If you are on the CodeSandbox playground you can also choose to [provide the API key like this](https://codesandbox.io/docs/learn/environment/secrets)
+
+## Development
+
+Go into the example-directory and run
+
+```shell
+npm install
+```
+
+To start the example with the local library run
+
+```shell
+npm run start-local
+```
+
+The regular `npm start` task is only used for the standalone versions of the example (CodeSandbox for example)
