What problem does it solve?

Upgrading a Capacitor plugin to a newer major version can introduce breaking changes in dependencies and native platforms; this skill guides the process to minimize risk and ensure compatibility.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Dependency alignment: updates @capacitor/* peer dependencies and adjusts native bridge code to the target major version.
  • Native platform adaptations: updates iOS and Android native project settings to match the new Capacitor version.
  • Example app verification: rebuilds and validates the example/test app to confirm API compatibility after upgrade.
  • Sequential upgrade path: performs upgrades across each major version increment without skipping steps to ensure gradual compatibility.

Quick Start

Upgrade a Capacitor plugin to a newer major version by updating dependencies, adjusting native code, and validating the plugin in its example app.
