This would be great as a web component for non-React developers. It could even work in plain HTML by generating a series of inputs for the form.

Yes, true.

Looks nice, and good demo. Maybe add a section to the site or the github showing browser support? I have some custom webcam capture stuff on my app but I need to make sure it works everywhere. Lastly, does it work with react native?

Surely, we'll try to add browser support. Yes it does work with react-native. But you can always use camera native api while going with react-native.

Last time I tried this approach, the problem was that the native camera input had much better quality, while ImageCapture was essentially a still frame from a video (worse exposure/processing).

Is this better now?

Although image quality is a challenge but it is still very suitable for various use cases that isn't around the image quality. The image looks better now.
