# Capacitor

> Bring web applications to native mobile platforms

Capacitor is an open-source runtime for building mobile applications with JavaScript, HTML, and CSS. You can add it to an existing web project and create native platform projects for iOS and Android while continuing to use a preferred web framework. It also supports progressive web applications.

Plugins expose device functions such as the camera, filesystem, geolocation, notifications, and haptics to the web-based interface. Developers can use existing plugins or write custom native code through the plugin API, with a compatibility layer for supported Cordova plugins. This connects a web application's code to native functionality and the workflow needed to distribute it through mobile app stores.
