Review Comment: ```suggestion Contains the project's web artifacts, such as HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and other resource asset files. As a Cordova application developer, most of your code and assets will go here. They will be copied on a `cordova prepare` to each platform's `www` directory. The `www` source directory is reproduced within each platform's subdirectory, appearing for example in `platforms/ios/www` or `platforms/android/assets/www`. Because the CLI constantly copies over files from the source `www` folder, you should only edit these files and not the ones located under the platforms subdirectories. If you use a JavaScript build tool, you should set it to output your production distribution files to the `www` folder. If you are developing code in the `www` folder directly, you should add this folder to your version control system. ``` ########## www/docs/en/dev/guide/overview/project-structure.md: ########## @@ -0,0 +1,100 @@ +--- +license: > + Licensed to the Apache Software Foundation (ASF) under one + or more contributor license agreements.
