Summary

Web developers transitioning to mobile development with Capacitor may find the mobile ecosystem overwhelming, but several tools can streamline the process, especially for Android and iOS platforms. For Android, tools like scrcpy and Android Debugging Bridge (adb) enhance device control and debugging capabilities, while Inspect.dev offers advanced debugging for Capacitor applications beyond standard Chrome and Safari tools. On the iOS side, simctl facilitates interaction with iOS simulators, xcodes simplifies managing multiple Xcode versions, and QuickTime Player allows for iPhone screen mirroring on Macs. These tools, most of which are free, are invaluable for developers aiming to enhance their mobile development workflow with Capacitor.
