Support of Windows platform

[FabriceFR]

Actual Behavior

In the tip and specifications for the launch.json plaform attribute completion is indicated : "Only 'iOS' and 'Android', other platforms are currently not supported"

Expected Behavior

Is it planned / possible to get back 'windows' platform support to ensure the cross platform support?

Hi @FabriceFR and thanks for your question. Right now Cordova for Windows apps can be debugged by only the VS 2017, and under the hood they use the deprecated EdgeHTML engine backend. EdgeHTML Edge support will end on March 9 2021. Currently the VS 2019 and the most recent versions of JS debuggers in VS Code doesn't support EdgeHTML debugging as they tuned to debug webview working on Chrome DevTools Protocol. So we may add such support when Cordova for Windows will start to use Chrome-based webview as rendering backend.
