====================================== [ANNOUNCE] Apache Cordova 3.6 Release The Apache Cordova community is proud to announce the release of Apache Cordova 3.6. Apache Cordova is a set of device APIs that allow a mobile app developer to access native device function such as the camera or accelerometer from JavaScript. Combined with a UI framework such as jQuery Mobile or Dojo Mobile or Sencha Touch, this allows a smartphone app to be developed with just HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. The 3.6 release addresses bug fixes and some minor enhancements. Most notable changes include: * Android and Amazon FireOS platforms include a new whitelist for controlling the launch of external applications via intents. Also support for gradle was added. * CB-6761 Android: Fix native->JS bridge ceasing to fire when page changes and online is set to false and the JS loads quickly * Windows8 platform is now called Windows to indicate the support for windows universal apps. The windows8/windows platform now supports building apps targeting Windows 8.1 and Windows Phone 8.1 in addition to Windows 8 which was originally supported (see documentation for new –win and –phone Command Line switches). * For targeting Windows Phone 8.0, the wp8 is still supported. * Support for Windows Universal Apps is being added. The release is available from: http://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.cgi/cordova In the first 48 hours, the release will be propagating to the mirrors, so allow time for it to show up in a mirror near you. The release is also available via npm: npm -g install cordova The Apache Cordova website has been updated to reflect the release, including documentation. Details on this release can be found on this blog entry: http://cordova.apache.org/announcements/2014/09/08/cordova-361.html Also please visit our website: http://cordova.apache.org Thanks!
