Trying out PhoneGap Desktop App on Windows 10 for Windows Phone Apps

 

PhoneGap Desktop app is basically a visual interface for developing phonegap apps easily. For this post I am using the the latest beta release 0.1.11 from github.

I followed the step-by-step instructions from here but it did not work for me. I had to do some additional steps and use the old PhoneGap CLI to make it work.

Here are the high level steps I performed to make it work on my Windows 10 machine

• Install PhoneGap Desktop App (download beta release 0.1.11 from here)







• Install Mobile App
  
  

• Create New App using Desktop App

  
  
  

  

• Run the App

  
  
  
  
  
  

• Resolve the Issue

• Disable Virtualbox or VMWare Network Adapters
  
  

• Run CLI   (You can install the CLI from here)
  
  

• App Working

• Connecting the Mobile App
  
  
  
  

• Editing it in Visual Studio Code and Live Update
