The datepicker native input plugin exists, so it's just installing it. Then you get a JS api for it.

If it doesn't exist somewhere in the thousands of plugins available, you'll have to make it yourself. The other thing that happens, is perhaps a plugin is only available for Android. Maybe there's another one with a slightly different JS api for iOS... or none.

I've also done emscripten compiled C++ mixed in there. Which replaced various native apps. Since it was mostly OpenGL anyway... the few controls were easily implemented in JS/Html.

Anyway... just trying to share some options. Lots of native cordova plugins available (which I guess is it's main point). I really don't care what other people do... and somehow got drawn in to this discussion again!

Thanks for the suggestions. While trying Ionic, I didn't install Cordova plugins to fine-tune input control. I will give it another shot.
