Command Line Interface

Why the CLI?

Because it's easy,

How easy?

Thanks @chews

The Hard Part

There are a few drawbacks to this simplified interface :

- Getting away from the stardard platform IDE's (this could also be a plus!)

- Debugging can be hard but there tools to help (ripple emulator).

- Cutomization of resources (icons, splashscreens etc), we're working on this.

- Using the config.xml to describe platform specific settings can be complicated.

The more we use the cli the better it will get.
