## Cordova Android Developer Tools
2010-01-27 09:58:27 +08:00
2015-02-19 10:37:59 +08:00
We recommend using the [Cordova command-line tool ](https://www.npmjs.com/package/cordova ) to create projects and be able to easily install plugins.

However, the following scripts can be used instead:
2010-08-31 07:02:47 +08:00
2013-10-22 10:55:40 +08:00
./bin/create [path package activity] ... creates the ./example app or a cordova android project
2013-07-16 02:27:05 +08:00
./bin/check_reqs ....................... checks that your environment is set up for cordova-android development
./bin/update [path] .................... updates an existing cordova-android project to the version of the framework
2011-09-02 05:44:02 +08:00
2013-07-16 02:27:05 +08:00
These commands live in a generated Cordova Android project. Any interactions with the emulator require you to have an AVD defined.
