I'm seeing this question pop up on our IRC, as well as in person after meet ups, as well as on stack overflow here and there.
Scenario: I have a website, and I have a native app that uses cordova. My cordova apps simply point to the website URL to get its contents. The question becomes: since both browser and native versions of the app include cordova.js, how do we know if we're in cordova or not? I'm leaning towards a functional approach to determining that. Basically, does the bridge work? I know the easy answer from us is "don't do that" but I think for platforms that don't have a stringent review process and want to oppress apps from loading code dynamically (you know who you are) this is a valuable approach. The build process can solve this problem but I still think coming up with a good answer to this question has value. What about during cordova.js' initialization we test the bridge (echo plugin?). If it works, we set window.cordova.isWebView or some shit. If it doesn't, well, it deosnt. Thoughts/comments welcome!
