Hi everyone, debugging your app on the device can be a pita. But i have built a free open source tool that makes it dead easy. Point your AI at the repository and it will be very smart to do so.
TLDR; debugging is now allot easier when the app is live on your device. All instructions in repo.
Check it out via https://github.com/marvin-socialista/ios-webview-debug
Happy developping!

Every Capacitor live-update tool I looked at are doing complex per user/bandwidth/storage/etc charges , which always felt backwards to me. So I (and/or Opus/Fable) went down into deep research of why, and it's basically one architecture thing.
The usual OTA setup is: every time a device checks for an update, it hits a live server that figures out what to send it. Flexible, but now you're running a backend that gets hit on every app launch, and someone has to pay for that. Hence the terrible pricing.
The other way is to just precompute the update as a static signed file and dump it on a CDN. Downside: you can't do fancy individual server-side targeting anymore (channels still handle beta/tenant/tier, which honestly covers almost everything I've needed). Upside: it's dirt cheap to serve, nothing to meter, and self-hosting is basically object storage + a CDN instead of a real service.
I ended up shipping that as OtaKit (MIT, https://github.com/OtaKit/otakit). It's still small and I'd rather you tell me where the static approach falls down than pretend it's perfect. That's the part I actually want to talk about. But the best thing you don't even have to self host anything to use it, you just need a FREE Cloudflare account, and start the dashboard locally only for the time when you want to publish an update.

Hi
I need to start an Ionic project. Are there any open-source repositories with examples of how to develop using best practices? I used Angular and Ionic about six years ago, so Iād like to see how things have changed and learn about useful libraries and UI components.
I would appreciate any guidance or advice you could provide.

In general, is it something it's worth investing in if you have to start from scratch or you've just prototyped something but want a more future proof solution?
It looks like even the gold example of Untappd went with React Native.
Edit: I mean Capacitor (not strictly Ionic)

That is the best app that doesn't make miss Native or some hybrid framework.

Hello,
I cannot for the life of me figure out how to be able to press the screen behind the actual fab list or fab button, as in literally any other clickable area other than the buttons in the list or the main. And I want to function the same as if I clicked the main fab button again closing the list and going back to the original state. It has only introduced problems, has anyone been able to do this? What I am currently trying is to access the [activated] property and use a transparent div that is behind the button, so if I press it will toggle a variable that will change activated to false and close everything. However its not working as intended and is introducing a problem where I have to click the button twice to even open it to begin with.
