How to create a Phonegap maker app for Android Wear?

I would like to create a pure HTML5 and Javascript based Phonegap app that can be built with a Phonegap build and be able to deploy to Android Wear.

If this is possible at the moment, what steps should be taken?

My research:

I know that I can use CocoonJS from Ludei to create an HTML5 based app for many platforms, including Android Wear, pretty much like what I do in Phonegap (Ludei also offers a cloud build of their apps and this even seems free). But I have some performance doubts for my simple data transfer application because CocoonJS seems to be optimized for high performance games. Also, I would like to avoid switching Phonegap to a different environment, if possible.

@trejder, you have it right at this point. There is very little support for AndroidWear, but that doesn't mean it's impossible. Most Phonegap apps depend on Java (or Equivalent on platforms other than Android) to do the heavy lifting. If you see some of the tools, chances are you will see more.

One option is to team up with the Java author to write the most basic parts you need, but I haven't found much luck with that.

With all this in mind, however, I wouldn't worry. Over the past two years, many of the socks (I've seen) use BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy) in the wild. If so, for the wearing that you are looking at, then you are in luck.
