Anyone made Cordova plugin for given .aar library?

Hi,
in the last years I got really good in adding missing functions to SB or changing/optimizing functions of SB with javascript, and I also added some Cordova plugins from GitHub and sometimes did small modifications on them (for example bluetooth print and qr/barcode scanner with camera).
But now I have the situation that I only got an .aar library and a documentation of the libraries functions from a partner company. And I need to use this functions in my SB-Cordova app on Android, but there is no Cordova plugin at the moment from the partner.
Did anyone of the pros here such programming or knows good tutorials for this? I searched on the Cordova site, Stack Overflow etc., and Google helped to find some postings, blogs etc. But at the moment I don't think, that I really understood what I have to do. The whole process of needing to write a .java code to use the .aar and then a .js code to use the .java code looks confusing and not so easy.
Some people also say, that such things can be done now with an AI, but here I don't have any experience.
I spontaneously today had some talk with ChatGPT on their website, and I thought there were some lights going on in my brain, we will see.
But what is the best AI for such programming jobs?
