> When https://github.com/apache/cordova-docs/pull/745 is merged, the resulting 
> "installing-a-development-environment.md" should be a) tested for correctness 
> and b) restructure by platform instead of by tech. Makes much more sense, as 
> one will only work through the list for one platform. c) might be to add some 
> explanation which tech is used for which reason and part of the site.
