Hi Rodney,

thank you for your answer.

Yes, an Ubuntu Web App is a contained browser viewing, and I know that 
in Ubuntu SDK the "HTML5 apps" are the right kind of project (template) 
for a Web App.
But I'm looking for a method to fill the contained browser viewing 
automatically because I developed a Web App in Cordova (for Windows), 
and now I want to create the same Web App for Ubuntu Touch. The only way 
that I discovered to port this app in Ubuntu SDK, consists in cutting 
and pasting the code inside the contained browser viewing of Ubuntu SDK 
HTML5 project (see the picture attached) . I have to paste the code in 
the right position, inside head or body tags, and this is not really 
user friendly method, and it's slow.

Is there a method in Ubuntu SDK to import a Cordova Web App project 
(developed in Windows)?
I have all the  project source code, can Ubuntu SDK import a project 
developed in Cordova for Windows?

Thank you,
Marco
