Apache Cordova

I wrote four books on Apache Cordova and contributed to the project for many years; you can find references to my Cordova books on the Books page of this site. The repositories here are taken from those books; they're the public, installable versions of the Apache Cordova Plugins I described in PhoneGap Essentials, Apache Cordova 3 Programming and Apache Cordova 4 Programming. This page contains links to 2 repositories.

Apache Cordova Meaning of Life Plugin

The source code for a JavaScript-only Apache Cordova plugin. I created this plugin because Cordova plugins don't have to have native code in them and I wanted a way to illustrate that. I called the plugin Meaning of Life (MOL) as a shorter version of the 'The Answer to the Ultimate Question of Life, the Universe, and Everything' from The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (the plugin returns 42, the answer to the Ultimate Question).
