Build doesn’t produce apk

问题

I’m using Visual Studio Tools for Apache Cordova CTP3.1 on VS 2013. Building a simple Blank App template for Android. Build succeeds with no errors, but I can’t find compiled APK file anywhere! bin\Android\ folder contains empty Release and Debug folders. Below is my output from VS build. I don’t see the actual call to Cordova to do the Android build, should it be there? Ripple emulator works just fine.

Thank you.

Build output:

To create apk, you need to select target as Device or Emulator. Apk is not created for Ripple because no package deployment is required, it is just launching the index.html in browser.
