# Welcome

Awesome Cordova Plugins is a curated set of TypeScript wrappers for Cordova plugins that make adding native functionality to your [Ionic](https://ionicframework.com/) mobile app easy.

Every Cordova plugin callback is wrapped in a Promise or Observable, providing a common interface and seamless integration with Angular change detection.

## Features

* **TypeScript wrappers** for over 250 Cordova plugins
* **Promise and Observable** support for modern async patterns
* **Angular integration** with automatic change detection via `/ngx` imports
* **Framework-agnostic** — works with Angular, React, or plain TypeScript
* **Capacitor compatible** — use Cordova plugins in Capacitor projects

## Quick Start

Install the core library and any plugin wrapper you need:

```bash
npm install @awesome-cordova-plugins/core
npm install @awesome-cordova-plugins/camera
```

Then install the corresponding Cordova plugin:

```bash
ionic cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-camera
```

See the [Installation](/awesome-cordova-plugins/installation.md) guide for detailed framework-specific setup instructions.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://danielsogl.gitbook.io/awesome-cordova-plugins/readme.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
