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.
