Capacitor Plugin Guide

A guide to accessing native device features using Capacitor's plugin system for web-to-native mobile applications.

Usage

Ask about Capacitor plugins, native features, custom plugin development, or web-to-native bridging.

Examples

• "Access the device camera with Capacitor Camera plugin"
• "How do I create a custom Capacitor plugin?"
• "Set up push notifications with Capacitor"

Guidelines

• Use official Capacitor plugins before building custom ones
• Handle permission requests gracefully with user-facing explanations
• Provide web fallbacks for features that work in browsers
• Test native features on real devices, not just simulators
• Use the Capacitor CLI for syncing web builds to native projects
