Can anyone share a documentation / code sample for Flutter google maps plugin where I can rotate the marker ( ex: a car icon ) according to the driving direction. I saw this can be achieved on native library by rotating the marker. But couldn't fjnd any option to rotate the marker in Flutter.

I guess we need to consider below points while rotating the marker. Please add your thoughts on this as well.

Map North Direction. Devices rotation from compass.

Thanks
