Answer 1

Cordova is for interfacing your mobile app's client with that of the OS. Nodejs is a server-side technology. You can build both components separately... Your cordova mobile app (or native mobile app, or whatever), i.e., The Client will talk with your nodejs server, i.e., The Server.

If you've built cordova apps before, just continue as is, or if you're new, checkout some bootstrap packages like those for Sencha or Ionic or any of the million other frameworks, or start building your own app from scratch (though it's a little tough to get everything in your head sometimes)

Thanks Harsh. I'm currently trying with Ionic but still its unable to connect to node.js. Cant i directly connect to server or shall i have to write Web Service for talking to Server? – Hessney

What do you mean "directly connect"? Just make your server available at, say, localhost:3000, and make the requests like you do in plain js... it's no different. – Alwin
