I'm interested to hear this, as I'm one of those people that hated Cordova but loved the promise of a single codebase.
I was involved in a project that could only afford updates every so often, and every time I returned to try update packages it was a living nightmare.
Maybe I'll give Capacitor a go.
- joshstrange 3y agoI won’t pretend that capacitor is all sunshine and roses, but it’s vastly superior to Cordova in that you commit the iOS and Android projects themselves instead of generating them from scratch. It means that you can make edits in Xcode or Android Studio, and they are persisted so that when you go to build the app on a build server it works pretty much the same as locally. Toss Fastlane into the mix and local dev, working as a team, and using a build server is a breeze. I write apps that process hundreds of thousands of dollars through them using Quasar+Capacitor (both taking payment through the app as a customer and using the app to talk to a Bluetooth card reader to process payments as a vendor) and without being able to share a codebase I could never have accomplished this as a solo founder.
