I have recently installed VS 2015 Enterprise and while installing I didn't get any place where VS asked to select anything related to Apache Cordova extension. When I am trying to create a Apache Cordova Project it says that Tools for Apache Cordova are not installed and click ok to install. When I am clicking on "OK" Button after some time I am getting Setup page window. In short it's not installing the extension. How Can I install Apache Cordova if I have already installed VS 2015 Enterprise and haven't selected it while installing VS?
Select Add new app from the menu. Enter a name for your application project, adding an optional description as needed. Select the appropriate OS for your application project (Android or iOS only), then select the Cordova platform option. Click the Add new app button on the bottom-right corner of the page.
Open the Project in Visual Studio CodeClick on the debug icon in the sidebar or CMD+SHIFT+D , then click on the gear icon next to the debug button in the upper left side and select Cordova. We can now run our hybrid mobile apps on an iOS/Android simulator, emulator, or actual device.
Installing Cordova. You need to install Cordova on your local system to package an HTML5 application as a native mobile application with NetBeans IDE. You will use npm, the NodeJS package manager, to install and to update Cordova.
If you have Visual Studio 2015 installed already, go to control panel open add/remove software, select Visual Studio 2015 and choose modify, you will see an option for Cross Platform Mobile Development, select this and update.
If you don't have VS2015 installed already you can follow this guide to install Cordova tools for VS
