Capacitor Platforms (Desktop)
Bring a Capacitor app to macOS, Windows, and Linux with the Capawesome desktop platforms: @capawesome/capacitor-electron and @capawesome/capacitor-tauri. Both use the standard Capacitor workflow (cap add / cap sync / cap run), report Capacitor.isNativePlatform() as true, and deliver deep links through the standard @capacitor/app events.
Prerequisites
| Requirement | Electron | Tauri |
|---|---|---|
| Node.js | LTS (18+) | LTS (18+) |
| Capacitor | 6+ | 8+ |
| Electron | >= 28 (installed by the scaffold) | — |
| Rust toolchain + system dependencies | — | Required — see the Tauri prerequisites guide |
On Capacitor 6 and 7, the Capacitor CLI ignores the exit code of platform hooks — a failing npx cap sync still reports success. Check the log output for [capacitor-electron] errors. Capacitor 8 fails the command properly.
