Apache Cordova and ADT - Update 'www' folder

I am developing an Android app using Apache Cordova 3.6.0.
I have followed the instructions available here and here to create, build and run my app.

I realized there are two folders which store HTML, CSS and JS files: www and platforms/android/assets/www:

According to this answer, I should modify only www because the command $ cordova run android will overwrite platforms/android/assets/www.

When I run my app through ADT, the folder platforms/android/assets/www is not updated.

How can I make ADT update this directory? What am I missing?

Solution

  • The linked answer is correct. You should only modify the content of the root www folder.
    But you will have to build your app before you run it to make your changes take effect in the platforms/android/assets/www folder by running:

       $ cordova build

    or cordova build android.
