It’s great that there is a robust plugin ecosystem for Capacitor. But for “basic” expected functionality it can often lead to poor DX. Deciding which unofficial plugin to use, and why, can be tough. For example, safe area inset and native audio, IMO, should be provided by capacitor. Instead there are a handful of plugins in varying states of maintenance we must choose from.

Plugins are great and that ecosystem should be supported, but it would be nice to have some more of the core functionality supported as part of the official capacitor package. Or, at least maintained as official plugins.

Thanks for considering!
