---------------------------------
Summary: improve docs for Windows workstations when building for
Android
Key: CB-5533
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-5533
Project: Apache Cordova
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Docs
Affects Versions: Master
Reporter: Marcel Kinard
Priority: Minor
See https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/phonegap/QbnoaPxg4Ug and

The fact that this person wrote a blog on how to get an app created on Android
using a Windows workstation and that it got so many "thanks" comments indicates
that cordova-docs may need some improvements.
My suspicion is that the docs are a bit thin in places (especially for
newbies), and the committers are mostly Mac users. I'm guessing that Android
with a Windows workstation is probably the most common consumer scenario.
So the task here is to do an end-to-end walkthrough as a newbie of creating an
Android app on a Windows workstation that originally has no pre-reqs installed,
and make sure that all the needed tasks and explanations are in cordova-docs.
Bonus points for increasing the scope to include:
- iOS on a clean Mac
- BB10 on Windows workstation
- WP8 on Windows workstation
