Tools Released!
18 Dec 2017

We just released an update to our tools!

Release Highlights

  • CB-13056: removed support for WebOS, BlackBerry10, and Ubuntu
  • CB-13057: removed cordova save command. This command isn't needed as cordova auto saves dependencies.
  • CB-13055: removed --nofetch flag. Now all of our dependency fetching happens via cordova-fetch. This allowed us to drop the npm@2 dependency we were shipping with cordova. Instead, we now just use your system npm to do all of our fetching.

To update your cordova CLI:

npm install -g cordova@latest

Please report any issues you find at issues.cordova.io!
