This is a book about Apache Cordova 9, the leading framework for building native mobile applica-tions for multiple target platforms using HTML5 (HTML, jаvascript, and CSS). I created the book in order to help web developers and mobile developers understand how to use Apache Cordova to build hybrid applications for mobile devices. The book targets the specific capabilities pro-vided in Apache Cordova 9 and subsequent versions.

The book is written for mobile developers who want to learn about Apache Cordova 9. If you’re brand-new to Cordova, this book will be just what you need to get started. If you’re experienced with an older version of Cordova, this book can act as a refresher, plus it will show you in detail how to use all of the new stuff that’s in Cordova 9. You should have at least some experience with mobile development to directly benefit from this book. For web developers who want to get into mobile development using Apache Cordova, I’ve included content that shows you how to install and use the native SDKs, but I won’t cover many native-specific topics.

Use Apache Cordova if you:

- Mobile application developer and want to expand the ability of your application to work on more than one platform, without having to re-implement it in the language and toolkit of each platform.
- A web application developer, and you want to deploy a packed app for distribution to various app stores.
- a mobile application developer interested in integrating native application components into a WebView (special browsing window) that can access device-level APIs, or if you want to develop a plugin interface between native components and web components .

What you’ll find in the book:

-Lots of detailed information about Apache Cordova, what it does, how it works, and how to use the available tools and APIs
-Lots of examples and code
-Mobile web development and mobile development topics; this is a book about Apache Cordova, not mobile development
-Expressions or phrases in languages other than English (I hate it when authors include expressions from Latin or French)
-Obscure references to pop-culture topics (although there is an overt reference to Douglas Adams’s Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy and one obscure reference to Monty Python)
-Pictures of my children or my pets

This is not a book for experienced Cordova 9 developers - if you consider yourself an experienced Cordova developer, you probably should not buy this book.
