PhoneGap API Documentation

The public API documentation for PhoneGap. The documentation is rendered as the PhoneGap API Documentation website.

Document File Format

All of the PhoneGap documentation is written with markdown, a lightweight markup language that can be typeset to HTML. Markdown provides a simple and flexible way to document PhoneGap's core API and platform-specific APIs.
