Looks very interesting! Have you considered supporting Capacitor? It's a modern alternative to Cordova that is powering all new Ionic Framework apps. We would love to have more options for the community (I'm Ionic CEO btw)

Thank you. Appreciate it :)

We do support Cordova, we've built our own SDK to support it. I haven't checked Capacitor before, but I'll definitely check it out. Looks cool.

How different is it from Cordova? From your experience have you seen the migration to be an easy one?

Capacitor has backwards compatibility with many Cordova plugins. That being said, migration is fairly straightforward: https://capacitorjs.com/docs/cordova/migrating-from-cordova-...

It's similar in theory to Cordova but quite a bit different in practice, so that's hard to say. Its about two years old but has been growing quickly (https://npmcharts.com/compare/@capacitor/core)
