SDK for Capacitor

[EinfachHans]

It would be awesome to have a Capacitor Plugin as a wrapper around the native iOS, native Android and web SDK

When you don't know Capacitor and/or need support, i can assist you with that 😊

I'm open to a capacitor SDK, but I don't know anything about it.
How much work is it to build a wrapper?

@goenning Nice to hear 👍🏼

Capacitor is the a multi platform tool, which supports web apps, native ios and native android apps. In the native environments it works by starting a web view, where users are able to present a web frontend. Maybe you heard of Cordova before, it's like a way better successor.

The work should not be much. Capacitor provides a bridge between the web view and the native platform.

In general it's quite easy:

• You have a definition of some methods in typescript
• You optionally (would make sense in this case) have a web implementation, so typescript again, where we could use the js aptabase sdk
• For both native environments you have a native file, so swift and java/kotlin, where we could use the native sdk's of aptabase.

So the only thing "to maintain" would be:

• Update package versions from time to time (as far as i know you can configure the ios and android dependencies with a default and users can override that by theirself). But it's a good practise to update the default one always to the latest one
• If something at the sdk changes (new method or arguments for example) the changes needs to be reflected

As i said i would love to assist you here if you want to 😊

@EinfachHans feel free to start building the sdk in your own repo and we can transfer it afterwards
