Cordova

Revision 6 as of 2013-12-13 18:18:57

Apache Cordova is a platform for building native mobile applications using HTML, CSS and JavaScript.

Ubuntu is now an official target platform for Cordova. This means that you can build and run Cordova applications on Ubuntu, starting with version 3.3.0.

Release notes

With this release, the focus is developing on an Ubuntu system and using the Cordova Web Project Dev Workflow. This includes adding the Ubuntu platform to your project, adding standard Cordova plugins, and, of course, building and running the apps for the Ubuntu platform.
