I want to build an Angular + Ionic5 + capacitor app, and I found there are lots of splash screen approaches.

  1. Ionic native splash screen.
  2. Capacitor splash screen.
  3. Cordova plugin splash screen （Which I think will not be considered because I will use capacitor instead of Cordova. correct me if I am wrong.）

Which one should I use, is there any big difference between them?

Ionic Native Splash Screen and Cordova Plugin Splash Screen are the same thing and they don't work with Capacitor, it's listed on the known incompatible plugins section.

If you check Ionic Native docs, it tells you to install cordova-plugin-splashscreen, Ionic Native plugins are just wrappers around Cordova plugins so they are easier to use in projects that use typescript instead of javascript.
