Are there any plans by Microsoft to release a Taco Update 11 with native Cordova 7, Node 4.x support?
Is Taco still an active project since the last update was two years

Answer 1

After a few try i have found a way:

Follow this steps:

1. install nodejs 4.8.7 on your machine

2. in visual studio go under tools>options>"Tools for apache cordova" and deflag chekbox "use a sandboxed version of NodeJS"

3. Edit taco.json file of your project and set "cordova-cli": "7.1.0"

4. Open a new console and install cordova on your machine (npm install -g cordova@7.1.0)

For android build:

1. open prompt, digit android and press return
2. dovnload API 26 SDK from tool
3. download gradle 2.x and put bin folder in your system path
4. install jdk 1.8.x and set java_home system var to it reboot
