What is ngCordova ?

ngCordova is A collection of AngularJS extensions for Apache Cordova (the PhoneGap core) that simplifies developing mobile applications that run on AngularJS . When developing mobile applications, developers usually take two approaches. One is to develop using a native technology like Java for Android and Objective-C for iOS. The second is to use HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript, building a Web-accessible application on top of a common technology that almost all smartphones can access and render.The latter is becoming more and more used, mainly because of the plethora of new mobile development frameworks that have hit the market, and especially because of the PhoneGap and Cordova projects that provide a simple API for working with various phone features.ngCordova is for projects that use Apache Cordova and AngularJS, providing a set of AngularJS extensions specially crafted to help with developing mobile applications.The extensions themselves tap into various Cordova API features and provide simple abstraction layers to interact with various phone features or help build common UI widgets.Currently supported extensions will help with:Console interactionsDevice sniffingDevice motionsDevice orientationCamera controlsStatus barVibration controlsNetwork informationGeo-locationDialog messagesSplash screensManaging contactsBower supportFile managementGlobalizationGoogle AnalyticsLocal notificationsPin dialogPuSH notificationsSocial sharingSpinnersSQLite supportToast mesagesBarcode scanning This is changelog for ngCordova version 0.1.17-alpha :
