Is it possible to use Capacitor for the main content of my app and yet use e.g. a real native Bottom Navigation bar on Android? Something like this:

```auto
--------------
| |
| WebView |
| |
--------------
| Bottom Nav |
--------------

```

Actually yes! We just released a new product called [Portals](https://ionic.io/portals) that enables you to do this.

There is a demo video showcasing this in the [Portals documentation](https://ionic.io/docs/portals)
