cordova - Create PhoneGap 3.0.0 project error - 'platform add android' i not a node

Question

I am trying to get setup with phonegap 3.0.0. I am totally new to phone app development....just fyi.

Per instructions on phonegap's site (here), I am attempting the "platform add android" commmand from within my newly created project ("phonegaptest") and getting the following errror:

Found one other instance of this on the web and it was a path issue, I don't think mine is as I can type 'android' at the command prompt and it shows a list of valid commands.

Answer 1

Instead of attempting the platform add android command as posted on phonegap's website, skip that line and go onto the next line and do: phonegap build android. Then it will work.
