Feature: Eradicate checkout friction by implementing Google Places Address Autocomplete

[pradeep0153]

Description

Typing out a full shipping address (Street, City, State, Zip) on a mobile device is arguably the single highest point of friction in the entire e-commerce lifecycle. This tedious data entry is a primary driver of mobile cart abandonment and frequently leads to typos, resulting in misdelivered packages and expensive support overhead.

Proposed Solution

• Upgrade the primary <ShippingAddressForm /> component on the /checkout route.
• Integrate the official Google Places Autocomplete API (via @react-google-maps/api or a lightweight native script integration).
• Transform the standard "Street Address" input field into an intelligent, predictive search bar.
• The moment the user begins typing their street number, the Google API will instantly suggest highly accurate, verified full addresses.
• When the user taps a suggestion, seamlessly parse the resulting Google Geocoding payload and automatically auto-fill the City, State, and Zip Code input fields. This transforms a highly tedious 5-step data entry process into a frictionless, single-click action, drastically accelerating checkout velocity and mathematically guaranteeing address accuracy for our shipping logistics.
