Create a new directory named helloplugin. Then, create two blank directories, www and src, from the root. Next, create an empty file called plugin.xml. Now, we have a Cordova plugin project to get started, as shown here:

We open plugin.xml and paste the following code for basic information about the plugin that we are going to make:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<plugin xmlns="http://www.phonegap.com/ns/plugins/1.0"
        id="com.example.hello"
        version="0.7.0">

  <name>Hello</name>

  <engines>
    <engine name="cordova" version=">=3.4.0"/>
  </engines>
