feature
If you use the CLI to build applications, you use the plugin command to enable device APIs. This does not modify the top-level config.xml file, so the element does not apply to your workflow. If you work directly in an SDK and using the platform-specific config.xml file as source, you use the tag to enable device-level APIs and external plugins. They often appear with custom values in platform-specific config.xml files. See the API Reference for details on how to specify each feature. See the Plugin Development Guide for more information on plugins. NOTE: Most of the time, you do NOT want to set this directly.
