Independent by design
We're bootstrapped, with no investors and no plan to sell. Every roadmap decision answers to our customers and the community — not to a board or an exit.
Hi, we're Capawesome. 💜
A small, independent team building the mobile app platform we always wanted — for developers who feel the same way.
Bootstrapped. Remote-first. Loved by 1,000+ mobile teams.
A few facts about us
Small on purpose. Serious about impact.
2022 FoundedIndependent and bootstrapped
Remote 100% distributed teamAcross Europe and beyond
1,000+ Teams building with usFrom indie apps to Fortune 500
5M+ Plugin downloads / monthFrom the open-source community
From a side project to a platform
Capawesome started the way a lot of good open-source does: scratching our own itch, in public.
It's 2021. Capacitor is still young, the plugin ecosystem is thin, and we keep running into the same gaps while building mobile apps for clients. So we start writing the plugins we wish existed and publishing them as open source. A few turn into favorites. They end up in the official Capacitor Community organization on GitHub — where we're still members and still shipping today.
A year later, Robin Genz founds Capawesome to give those plugins a proper home and make them easier for other developers to find, use, and trust. What started as a handful of repos has grown into the Capawesome Platform — but the posture hasn't changed: bootstrapped, engineering-led, and built alongside the community it came from.
Trusted by 1,000+ mobile teams around the world
Give every mobile team the platform and SDKs we wished we had when we started. Building for mobile is hard enough. The tooling shouldn't be.
For every team size. From indie developers to enterprise teams, at fair, transparent prices that don't punish you for growing.
Across every stack. Capacitor, Ionic, Cordova, and native iOS and Android — one platform, no stack lock-in.
Without walls. Open-source plugins, a fully documented CLI, and a published REST API. Your code and your data stay yours.
The people you talk to in Discord are the same people who merge the pull requests.
The Capawesome team
Founders and maintainers
Mobile tooling, built the way we wish ours was built. We're software engineers by heart, and we still love the web. That shows up in the way we build.
We come from the web. Our roots are in open-source Capacitor and Ionic — hybrid, web-first frameworks we genuinely love. Mobile deserves the same care, speed, and openness the web gets.
We still write the code. The people you talk to in Discord are the same people who merge the pull requests. We haven't outsourced engineering — and we don't plan to.
We use what we ship. Every Capawesome feature runs our own team's work first. If it's not good enough for us, it's not good enough to ship to you.
Three things we won't compromise on
A short list, so we actually live by it.
Quality we can feel
We use our own platform every day. No vibe-coded shortcuts, no untested AI patches shipped to production. Security, stability, and real tests come before new features.
Feedback is the roadmap
Every message in Discord, every GitHub issue, and every email lands with someone who can actually fix it. We ship, listen, and improve again the next day.
Recognized where it matters
Backed by the Capacitor and Ionic communities we've been part of from day one.
Official Ionic Developer Experts
Our core team is part of the Ionic Developer Expert program — staying in close contact with the Ionic and Capacitor teams and bringing that expertise to every line of code we ship.
Capacitor Community members
We've been members of the official Capacitor Community organization on GitHub since our first plugins in 2021 — and we're still maintaining plugins there today.
Recommended by OpenForge
OpenForge, an Ionic Platinum Partner, officially recommends the Capawesome Platform as the platform of choice for Capacitor and Ionic apps.
Built with the community, in public
Most of Capawesome happens in the open — in Discord, on GitHub, and on YouTube.
