Custom BuildFire Plugin Development

Full custom plugins for BuildFire apps, built for a specific requirement rather than assembled from a template.

BuildFire's Developer Plugin tools cover a lot of common cases well. When a requirement goes beyond what they support — a specific workflow, a specific integration, a specific piece of native-device behavior — a full custom plugin, built with BuildFire's SDK directly, is the right tool.

What this covers

  • Full custom plugins built with BuildFire's HTML/JavaScript SDK
  • Native-device access — camera, location, notifications, and other device APIs where the plugin needs them
  • Authentication and data storage wired into your existing BuildFire app
  • Plugin architecture designed to survive platform updates, not just today's SDK version

Our approach

We scope against the Developer Plugin options first — if a lighter-weight option genuinely covers the requirement, we'll say so instead of defaulting to a full custom build.

How a plugin project runs

  1. Scope — what the plugin must do, who uses it, and whether a Developer Plugin option already covers it.
  2. Design — the user's screens and the control panel your team configures it from.
  3. Build — the widget, the control side and any backend it needs, tested on iOS and Android.
  4. Launch and document — installed in your app, with a guide your team can follow.

What you get

A plugin that fits BuildFire's conventions, so it behaves like the rest of your app; a configuration screen so day-to-day changes do not need a developer; and documentation of how it works. Our team's history with the BuildFire platform means we design plugins around how the platform actually behaves, including its update cycle.

Questions we hear

Can the plugin be used in several apps? Yes, if it is designed for it; we decide that up front because it changes the configuration design.

Who owns the code? Ownership is agreed in the proposal before work starts.
