Is there a decent Getting Started guide without prerequisite loops?

[Matteo Sisti Sette <ma...@gmail.com>]

Hi,

I was looking for a Getting Started kind of guide for developing in 
Cordova for the Android platform, but I've found myself trapped in a 
loop of links where page  A links you to page B to install something 
that is a requirement, and page B links you back to page A to install 
something that is a requirement. More details here:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-7369

Is there ANYWHERE a simple "monolythic" step-by-step install guide 
without  infinite requirement loops?

Thanks
m.

yep that's the short recipe for android platform.

soon will make git optional, when we have platforms downloaded by default
from npm. but git will be still supported for plugin installation via git
url.

I just went through this myself the past weekend.

I did:

Android SDK
During that install, it noticed I didn't have Java (this was a VM) and it linked me to install that.

Apache ANT
Git
Node.js (for npm)

Then finally npm install -g cordova.

That's it.
