Apache Cordova is an open-source mobile development framework that allows developers to build mobile applications using web technologies such as HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. Cordova enables the creation of cross-platform apps that can run on iOS, Android, and Windows, providing access to native device features through a unified API.

Features of Cordova:

• Cross-platform app development using web technologies (HTML, CSS, JavaScript).
• Access to native device features such as camera, GPS, and contacts through plugins.
• Supports building apps for multiple platforms (iOS, Android, Windows) with a single codebase.
• Extensive library of plugins for adding functionality like push notifications and file storage.
• Integration with third-party libraries and frameworks (e.g., Angular, React, Vue.js).
• Command-line interface (CLI) for managing app development and builds.
• App debugging tools and live-reload support for a faster development process.
• Active community and regular updates with support for modern mobile platforms.

Run these commands:
$ npm install -g cordova
$ cordova create myapp
$ cd myapp
$ cordova platform add android
$ cordova run android
