Re: Developing Web App in Cordova for Windows and build .click package for Ubuntu Touch
Marco,
Ubuntu is a supported target platform for Cordova.
>From the CLI, just do:
cordova platform add ubuntu
Take a look at the Cordova Guide here as well, to make sure you have the
right click chroot installed prior to building for the phone.

And keep us posted on #ubuntu-webapps on irc.
