And if so how do we override the defaults in the capacitor.config.ts at build time. Different builds require different configs.

Thanks

Hey there! We’re currently evaluating the timing of adding support for Native Config override functionality in the Capacitor-based plugin.

For our reference, what values do you use from the override and how are they used in your app(s)? Feel free to email us at appflow@ionic.io with the details, and we can follow up when we have more information.

Thanks!
