Cordova Plugin Example

Example Cordova plugin for iOS and Android to support this blog post.

A simple Cordova plugin based on the echo plugin example from the Cordova documentation.

• echo method: Extends that example to display a native Toast on Android, and a native dialog like view on iOS.
• echojs method: Basic demo showing that plugins can also be used to organize and distribute useful JavaScript, and don't need native implementations necessarily.

iOS doesn't have a Toast type UI component, hat tip to this Stack Overflow thread for providing a simplistic alternative that doesn't introduce any extra dependencies and allows us to demonstrate a native interface without having to get lost in implementing something complex.

Now also supports the browser platform as detailed in this blog post.
