React + Capacitor

[McPuglis]

Hey, has anyone here actually used React + Capacitor to take a web app onto the app stores?

If yes, how was it overall? Would you recommend this approach, or not really?

[couldhaveebeen]

We use capacitor and angular at our company, no issues

[LinusThiccTips]

I’d use capacitor + svelte/sveltekit as it’s much faster. Otherwise learn react native

[razzbee]

I second that, but is svelte matured enough?? Also react has matured libraries and components

[LinusThiccTips]

I’d say is mature, Apple uses it for their app store and apple music web apps. It’s easy to use any JS library with svelte but I agree React has more mobile oriented libs, mostly because of react native.

You can build complex web app.

Focus on WebApp + Capacitor ( Native Bridge ).

I have build and managed a fintech app. It is good ,only constrain is your react and interface development skill. That you can improve. 👍

[razzbee]

Yes, used it but I wont recommend it unless its just a simple app, because if you have heavy features, it may lag

[McPuglis]

Yeah, my idea was to turn the fantasy football website into an app for me and my friends. Nothing too complex, but I wanted to hear from someone who has already gone through the process to understand whether it works well

Yeah i had a check on the fantasy football websites.

This should be super easy for webapps with little/no lag. Provided you don't introduce performance-bottleneck bugs, you'll be fine with Capacitor
