Recommendations

The extension will make recommendations based on experience of common problems discovered by engineers at Ionic. Recommendations appear with a light bulb icon and can either be acted upon or ignored.

Common Recommendations

The follow scenarios will show a recommendation:

• When packages are deprecated or archived by their author in Github
• When a plugin has a better officially supported Capacitor plugin
• When a plugin has known issues and is no longer maintained by its author
• When a project has problems in its browserlist support
• When there are misconfigurations of angular.json found
• When versions of Capacitor cli, ios, android, core are mismatched
• If an incompatible plugin can be replaced by a Capacitor equivalent
• When a plugins functionality is already built into Capacitor
• When a dependency has been replaced (such as ionic-native -> awesome-cordova-plugins)
• If a plugin or dependency has known security vulnerabilities that need to be addressed
• When a plugin is not required (eg cordova-plugin-add-swift-support)

注記

Not all scenarios are covered, so if there a fix you've needed to apply to your project that you think would be of benefit to other developers please submit a suggestion.
