I hope you're well,
I'm looking for a plugin or a tutorial for : a- allow my users to fill in their address on their profile. The best would be to have a map on which they can identify their address or like on the UberEats site. b- to be able to find the closest users according to their address.
If you have any ideas, I'm interested,
I have already made the profile on Django, all I need is the address field.

The below code will do. You will need Javascript to play around a bit and set your form fields with the returned address.

You will need to add markers on map for each select. The code will console log the long and lat also, and return an alert with the address once you click it.
Credit goes to these two threads Link1 and Link2.
I managed to combine both codes and give results as you have mentioned.
