Description

I can't manage to build/add platform wp8. Cordova fetch can't find wp8 platform in npm registry.

I know wp8 is deprecated, but I have a project to maintain until I'm capable to migrate to windows universal platform. By the way, I was expecting to do it next month(august).

How can I workaround it?
