Description

cordova platform add browser@latest --nofetch
Warning: using prerelease version 7.0.2-dev (cordova-lib@7.0.2-dev)
Adding browser project...
Unable to load PlatformApi from platform. Error: Cannot find module 'cordova-common'
Error: Uncaught, unspecified "error" event. (The platform "browser" does not appear to be a valid cordova platform. It is missing API.js. browser not supported.)

I believe cordova-common wasn't properly bundled into cordova-browser@5. Works fine if I add it locally. Easy fix
