SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Bridging React apps with native capabilities via Capacitor can be complex. This Skill provides a structured approach to project setup, architecture, and pattern usage to streamline native feature integration.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Project structure guidance for Capacitor + React apps (src/hooks, src/components, and service modules).
  • React-native feature hooks and best practices for plugin usage in components.
  • State management patterns and platform-guarded plugin calls for robust cross-platform apps.
  • Use cases include quickly adding native features (camera, geolocation, storage) to React projects and maintaining clean architecture.

Quick Start

Set up a Capacitor React project and implement a sample feature using a native plugin.
