Can we have this support in future?

What is the best way to store it for now ? I guess it seems for now it feels like String is best approach...

TL;DR
The user is asking if the `Point` data type is supported for `geo_location` in an app. They provide a GitHub issue and a sample app for reference. They also ask for the best way to store it currently if the support is not available, suggesting using a String. The issue has been marked as closed.

Hi, can you upvote πŸ‘πŸΌ this issue: https://github.com/appwrite/appwrite/issues/388

And, float might be a good way to do it. sample app (a bit outdate but good enough to get an idea): https://levelup.gitconnected.com/building-a-location-based-app-with-appwrite-48a2e2b6d4c2
