2. download and install git client
after install it allow us to urn git command on command line

choose the download as per your operating system . for our case we download latest for window and install it
3. install cordova
we run npm command from node.js to install and download automatically cordova
C:\>npm install -g cordova
-g will tell npm to install it globally .
after running this command at command line . you can take power nap or a coffee because it take some time to download and install it .
