Apache Cordova allows for building native mobile applications using HTML, CSS and JavaScript. This tool helps with management of multi-platform Cordova applications as well as Cordova plugin integration.

In your command-line on Windows:

    c:\> npm install -g cordova

In your terminal on Mac OS X/Linux:

    $sudo npm install -g cordova

This simple example demonstrates how Cordova CLI can be used to create a myApp project with the camera plugin and run it for android platform:

    cordova create myApp com.myCompany.myApp myApp
    cd myApp
    cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-camera --save
    cordova platform add android --save
    cordova requirements android
    cordova build android --verbose
    cordova run android
