Sergey Grebnov commented on CB-6976:
------------------------------------
The following steps could be used for testing
1. Build/run/emulate of old windows8 template
cordova platform add windows8
npm update cordova
cordova build/run/emulate windows8
cordova build/run/emulate windows <- new alias is available
2. Cordova build in functionality to upgrade platform
cordova platform update windows8
cordova build/run/emulate windows <- windows8 alias could be used as well
cordova emulate windows -- --phone <- windows8 alias could be used as well
3. Creating new windows platform from scratch
cordova platform rm windows8 <- delete if already exists
cordova platform add window
cordova emulate windows -- --store80
> Add support for Windows Universal apps (Windows 8.1 and WP 8.1)

> Key: CB-6976
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-6976
> Project: Apache Cordova
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Reporter: Sergey Grebnov
> Assignee: Sergey Grebnov
>
> Creating this as a new JIRA feature since this is different from previously
> proposed adding support for Windows 8.1 only.
> This feature proposes transforming 'windows8' to 'windows' platform which is
> based on Windows Universal apps and which allows building apps for Windows 8,
> Windows 8.1 and Windows Phone 8.1. Window Phone 8 (wp8) stays as a platform.
> Original info from dev mail thread:
> With Windows 8.1 and Windows Phone 8.1 platforms released, it would be great
> to get Cordova support building apps for those platforms too. A lot of people
> on this list have also been talking about how to adapt existing apps to the
> new 8.1 platforms. Here is an initial proposal and prototype of how it may
> look.
> TL;DR; - Rename windows8 platform to be called windows. This platform can
> build apps for Windows 8, Windows 8.1 and Windows Phone 8.1. Window Phone 8
> (wp8) stays as a platform.

> For more details, see "Support for Windows Universal apps (Windows 8.1 and
> Windows Phone 8.1)" dev email thread
> TODO: add Windows 8.1 and WP8.1 components.
