custom mobile app - phonegap building

Just a question about building a custom mobile app. If I want to change only app name/description/icons, can I only fork the official phonegap build, create my own branch, make and commit changes, merge them into this master fork and then compile the app with phonegap (ios and android branches)? Is it correct or I'm missing something? Setting up the development environment is quite difficult, I think this could be simpler, but I'm not sure is the right way.

Furthermore, to keep my custom version updated, do I have only to sync my phonegap build fork and following the final steps explained here?

Thank you very much

Hi Ludovico,

you can create a custom app using the phonegapbuild repository, but please take into account that you might need to apply some changes manually to the build file (build/mm.bundle.js). E.g. the fields in config.json are converted to an angular constant in that file.

Kind regards,

Dani
