You can start your new cordova project perfectly with this template.

This template uses:

• Framework7
• Vue Js 2
• Webpack 2

• Cordova: 6.0.0
• Node.js: 6.5.0 (Supports ES6)

For live-reload i can't find easy way to do fixed version of this. But you can develop your app with this way:

1. cordova platform add ios browser (browser needs for development in live-reload mode.)
2. cordova run ios -- --lr (wait till app opens in your ios emulator or phone. it will close console output after publish, so live-reload will not work. don't close the app and go to next step.)
3. cordova run browser -- --lr (you can use live-reload in your phone-emulator and browser at same time. you can edit your files in live-reload mode now.)

Hooks are smart. They can fix some problems for you. Fix list:

• npm install Automatically checks node js dependencies.
• package.json Renames name variable if it has a space characters and auto saves. (It needed for npm install)
• www Automatically manages www folder. You don't need to think about www folder. Your target is always src folder.
• static Static assets automatically sync on live reload!
• CordovaHtmlOutputPlugin Automatically adds cordova.js to html. You don't need to add to your file manually. It's helpful for webpack.
• manifest.json Some cordova plugins needs manifest.json in root folder. If you add manifest.json file to your src folder, our smart hooks automagically copy it to www folder!

• config.xml Live reload needs <allow-navigation href="*"/> in development mode. So our smart hooks manages this too. You don't need to think about it.
• live-reload Manages live-reload dependencies automatically. Just write your code, and don't think about dependencies.
• device_router.html Smart router in live-reload mode. It searches for best available ip for connect server. if it can't find, you can write ip:port manually.
• CordovaDeviceRouter.js In live-reload mode, you can connect to server from multiple devices. This file inject right cordova.js file to page. So you can connect to webpack-dev-server from multiple devices at same time.

This template need cordova or phonegap, for more information cordova installation or phonegap installation.
