Mendix PhoneGap / Cordova hybrid app base package
This repository contains the core files needed to build a Phonegap package for your Mendix application.
It consists of two main parts:
- The core source files for the hybrid app
- The webpack configuration that is used during the build process
You should not use this package directly.
Instead, refer to the
Mendix PhoneGap / Cordova hybrid app template for instructions on how to customize and build your Mendix hybrid mobile app.
Building a templated Phonegap Build package
This project can be used to create a templated Phonegap Build package, as used within the Mobile Publish flow of the Mendix Portal.

Mendix-specific forks of Cordova/Phonegap plugins

These plugins have been created by the Cordova/Phonegap community.
For some of these plugins, we have created Mendix-specific forks.
The reason for creating a fork varies per plugin.
