#Steroids compatibility with Cordova CLI
The .cordova folder is included in new Steroids projects for initial Cordova CLI compatibility.
Cordova CLI commands can thus be run inside a Steroids project. The support is not complete; the current main use case is to facilitate plugin development in Xcode/Eclipse without having to create a separate Cordova project. You shouldn't use the native iOS/Android projects for actual development, since Steroids.js features are unavailable there.
Note that you have to load cordova.js from the www/ root in Cordova projects, instead of via localhost as it is in Steroids:
<script src="proxy.php?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Fcordova.js"></script>
The hooks in the hooks/ folder only affect Cordova CLI commands. For Steroids pre- and post-make hooks, see config/application.coffee.
