const listener = await CapacitorShareTarget.addListener('shareReceived', (event) => {
  console.log('Title:', event.title);
  console.log('Texts:', event.texts);
  event.files?.forEach(file => {
    console.log(`File: ${file.name} (${file.mimeType})`);
  });
});

// To remove the listener:
await listener.remove();
