Show users location on a struct MapView - swift

Question

I want to show the users location on a struct view of a MapView. Currently, the map is implemented with showing places fetched from an API.
Now I want to add the user location. It is done in a struct so that it can be called as a tabItem.
Most tutorials are showing the implementation in a class. Is there a simple way to add the user location to this struct?
import MapKit
import SwiftUI
import CoreLocation
struct MapView: View{
#EnvironmentObject var places: Places
#State var placesAPI = [Place]()
#State var region = MKCoordinateRegion(
center: CLLocationCoordinate2D(latitude: 51.3704, longitude: 6.1724),
span: MKCoordinateSpan(latitudeDelta: 5, longitudeDelta: 5)
)
var body: some View {
Map(coordinateRegion: $region, annotationItems: places) {
places in
MapAnnotation(coordinate: CLLocationCoordinate2D(latitude: places.latitude, longitude: places.longitude)) {
NavigationLink(destination: DiscoverView(place: places)) {
Image(places.city)
.resizable()
.cornerRadius(10)
.frame(width: 40, height: 20)
.shadow(radius: 3)
}
}
}
.navigationTitle("Locations")
.onAppear(){
apiCallPlaces().getPlaces{(places) in
self.places = places
}
}
}
}
struct MapView_Previews: PreviewProvider {
static var previews: some View {
MapView()
}
}

If all you need is the to show it just use a different constructor for Map
https://developer.apple.com/documentation/mapkit/map
init(coordinateRegion: Binding<MKCoordinateRegion>, interactionModes: MapInteractionModes, showsUserLocation: Bool, userTrackingMode: Binding<MapUserTrackingMode>?)
Having showsUserLocation set to true will do the trick with the proper permissions.
