Native Essentials

Six small but commonly needed Capacitor plugins. Each gets one focused reference; install only what you actually use.

When to consult

• Camera (@capacitor/camera) — take photos / pick from gallery: camera.md
• Filesystem (@capacitor/filesystem) — read / write files in app sandbox: filesystem.md
• Share (@capacitor/share) — native share sheet: share.md
• Haptics (@capacitor/haptics) — taps, vibrations, impact feedback: haptics.md
• Network (@capacitor/network) — connection status + offline UX: network.md
• Keyboard (@capacitor/keyboard) — show/hide / resize behavior on focus: keyboard.md

Hard rules

• ✅ Install only the plugins you use — don't install all six "just in case." Each adds binary size.
• ✅ Run npx cap sync after every plugin install.
• ✅ Add the relevant Info.plist permission strings for plugins that need them (Camera = NSCameraUsageDescription, Filesystem with photo library access = NSPhotoLibraryUsageDescription).
• ❌ Don't request permissions on launch — request when the user invokes the feature (tap "Take photo", not on app start).
