We are happy to announce that we have just released `Cordova Electron 1.0.2`!  This is one of Cordova's supported platforms for building Electron applications.

* [cordova-electron@1.0.2](https://www.npmjs.com/package/cordova-electron)

## Release Highlights

**To install:**

Cordova 8.x
```
cordova platform add cordova-electron@1.0.2
```

As original release was for **Cordova CLI 9.x**, the decision to support on **Cordova CLI 8.x** was in the post-release phase.

With this release, **Cordova CLI 8.x** now supports Electron.

Please note that any command that accept the platform argument, on **Cordova CLI 8.x**, must be `cordova-electron`.

Example:

```
cordova run cordova-electron --nobuild
cordova build cordova-electron
```
