> Let me say i have faced same issue. Normally when you add a plugin from
CLI, it should be added to config.xml for the sake of Phonegap build...This is
very confusing for an inexperienced programmer and i am considering rolling
back to Cordova CLI 8.1.0
For us, it is mostly that when you open config.xml you see everything, you
know exactly where you at with the project. Like for instance, you see custom
preferences and all the plugin stuff in config.xml and you see if the plugins
are installed etc without opening package.json, which can also have stuff non
related to cordova (that you might use for the front end). It way easier to
know what's going on with your project. Package.json can become hard to read.
As long as you don't remove the plugin detection in config.xml, here we are
ok since we keep on using config.xml for plugins since it's so much easier to
copy paste from one config.xml to the other in case of multi apps.
You don't need to open packages.json
