Solution is to make sure there's a www/ directory inside the root directory.

mkdir www

make sure your .gitignore file doesn't include www/ directory on it.

Once you create a new project using the create command,you need to change the directory to the newly create project where you are going to build your app.

eg. E:\Andriod\myapp>cordova create newapp Creating a new cordova project.

E:\Andriod\myapp>cordova build Current working directory is not a Cordova-based project.

E:\Andriod\myapp>cd newapp

E:\Andriod\myapp\newapp>cordova build

it will be working at this point
