Tutorial is outdated. What's the new way to do things?

See original GitHub issue

Hello, the docs aren’t aligned with what’s release. The tutorial mentions several times to use the XYZ API which is deprecated and I had no luck getting it to work.

Additionally the tutorial mentions we can do things like

    mapControls.maxPitchAngle = 90;
    mapControls.setRotation(6.3, 50);

but those APIs do not exist in the current release (TypeScript has a type error on the missing property and method).

It’d be great to keep the docs aligned with whatever is the current release, otherwise people may try to do things that simply won’t work.

What should we write instead of

    mapControls.maxPitchAngle = 90;
    mapControls.setRotation(6.3, 50);

?
