Prebuilt binaries:
Demos:
Create index.html:
<html>
<head>
<title>Hello World!</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Hello World!</h1>
We are using node.js <script>document.write(process.version)</script>
</body>
</html>Create package.json:
{
"main": "index.html"
}Compress index.html and package.json into a zip archive, and rename
it to app.nw:
app.nw
|-- package.json
`-- index.html
Download the prebuilt binary for your platform and use it to open the
app.nw file:
$ ./nw app.nwNote: on Windows, you can drag the app.nw to nw.exe to open it.
