My questions
Why Android Emulator does not work?
and
Why is there this error? :
CordovaError: Could not find either `android` or `avdmanager` on your $PATH! Are you sure the Android SDK is installed and available?
I solved my problem.
How did I do it?
I then clicked on Apply (then OK on the pop-up) to download the package in question.
I added the path of avdmanager to PATH in my .bash_profile
I have run source ~ / .bash_profile
to refresh
And I launched my command: cordova emulate android --verbose
successfully since the emulator has opened well.
