Can I use Cordova plugins in PWAs?

I know PWAs might be confusing at first as it may not be very clear what you can / can’t use in a browser target compared to native target (iOS, Android).

PWAs can’t access native plugins unless they have a web API that expose them. You can check this detailed list of what can be done in the web platform today.

Most cordova plugins are only meant to be used in native platforms (iOS, Android), but some DO support the browser platform and thus you can use them in the browser (PWAs).

One example is the @ionic-native/google-maps and cordova-plugin-googlemaps.

Committing code

To ensure code quality, we follow and enforce the Angular Commit Message Guidelines. These guidelines define a Commit Message Format and certain rules that will help teams achieve consistency with version control and source code management practices.

If you want to follow this practices please go to the template README.md to see the suggested guidelines.

If you don't want to use this, please delete the file:.huskyrc.json

Debugging the app

There are mostly four most popular ways to test your app as you develop. You can test your app using: a desktop webkit browser, a mobile browser on your phone, iOS or Android emulators, or as a native app on your device.

Learn how to do each of them on this How to debug an Ionic App tutorial.
