Demos and real apps

Quick Start

Create index.html:

<!DOCTYPE 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:

{
  "name": "nw-demo",
  "version": "0.0.1",
  "main": "index.html"
}

Run:

$ /path/to/nw .  (suppose the current directory contains 'package.json')

Note: on Windows, you can drag the folder containing package.json to nw.exe to open it.

Note: on OSX, the executable binary is in a hidden directory within the .app file. To run node-webkit on OSX, type:
/path/to/nwjs.app/Contents/MacOS/nwjs . (suppose the current directory contains 'package.json')
