Hello,
With Apache Cordova being retired, what is the Outsystems recomendation to develop native plugins for Mobile Outsystems Apps?
I want to access a the mobile flashlight, the forge plugins are broken and the website is dead:
I read something about ReactNative, please advise.
Hi @Kilian Hekhuis ,
We will progressively release a set of UI and performance improvements for mobile apps, and the replacement of Cordova with Capacitor is on the table.
You will start having news in the following quarters.
Thanks
Great news!Thank you Hugo, been waiting for feedback for almost a year.
Thanks for the update!
Hi Rui,
This question is being asked in the OutSystems Ambassadors a few weeks ago and below was the answer from OutSystems at that moment. I am not sure if there is any update for now.
Q: Cordova has been end of life for a while, any plans to update the mobile stack?
A: We are working and researching the best alternatives, and I hope we can soon have good news for you.
Best,
Bart
Thanks for your reply Bart
A bit lack of forecasting imo, hopefully they give us a answer soon
As Bart Nooijens said, we are currently researching some options, and we will share the news as soon as we have the final results.
Meanwhile, for you to build custom plugins or to use the ones available, they must be Cordova based to work with OutSystems mobile apps.
Did you try searching on our forge for flashlight solutions? You have 3 options there for you to use.
Hi Hugo,
Like mentioned in the original post, i did, am getting this error.
The logic is pretty simple:
PS: Any ETA/ETD for the new news?

Regarding the transition from Apache Cordova to Capacitor for OutSystems mobile apps: Any updates or timeline on when Capacitor might be integrated? Thanks
