Vladimir Kotikov updated CB-7666:
---------------------------------
Description:
Windows platform template stores it's package structure (bin and template
folders, package.json, etc.) inside of "windows" subfolder, and this is just a
heritage of windows8 platform.
Such a structure of platform template makes for example impossible to get
package using {{npm install}} directly from git repo, and adds unnecessary
complexity to tooling scripts.
Since wp8 platform is already moved to proposed structure (package.json is in
the root of repo), windows - is the last one of major platforms.
For simplicity and consistency, let's flatten repo structure and remove
unnecessary windows folder in repo root.
