What's New

We are excited to share with you the latest improvements to our Mobile and Desktop application building with Capacitor. We have put a lot of effort into fine-tuning the automatic usage of plugins, which are now auto-updated and have all necessary settings applied automatically for an even smoother experience.

In addition, we have added a new Capacitor plugin for full camera control. This means you can now fully utilize the device’s camera and take photos as you please. Check out Using Capacitor Camera Plugin for more information. Please note that the Capacitor Camera plugin is currently in beta, so you will need to enable beta extensions in order to try it out.

As the end of the year approaches and everyone starts to prepare for the holidays, this will be the last update of the year unless there are any urgent issues that need to be addressed. The Wappler team will be taking a break for a few weeks to spend time with our families and recharge, so responses to the community may be delayed during this time.

We want to thank you all for your support and engagement in the Wappler community this year. We couldn’t have done it without you. We wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year, and we look forward to continuing to work with you in the coming year.
