Address Inputs

This repo has several implementations of an address input field to choose from:

• GooglePlacesAddressInput - This is a simple react-select based input using the Google Places API. It has the best address data by far but it crazy expensive at the scale this site is running at.
• AlgoliaAddressInput - This uses the standard Algolia search places input. It is a lot nicer looking than the others, has worse map data than Google and has a much lower cost per API call BUT it doesn't support debouncing so performs an API call for every single keystroke leading to an obscene number of API calls.
• DebouncedAlgoliaAddressInput - This is a custom react-select based input using Algolia search with support for debouncing. It isn't as pretty as the normal Algolia search but it supports debouncing, leading to an order of magnitude less API calls being performed.
