What is needed for Node.js apps?

Hi

Just from a theoretical point of view, I want to know what would be needed to have Node.js stand alone apps to run on OS/2.

What are the framework, library set and/or runtimes that are needed to have node.js application like Riot.im , Butter Project (base for popcorn time) and others running as stand alone apps? I know that some node.js apps runs on Firefox on OS/2 like Riot.im, but I was wondering what is needed to have those running as stand alone.

This is just for my knowledge, don't think that I'm saying it is the #1 priority for us.

Regards

Hi Martin,

I assume you have had a look at some of the frameworks available on git.  A good list is at:
https://scotch.io/bar-talk/10-node-frameworks-to-use-in-2019
Where you go from there is a good question as I see little js in any browser because of noscript being active.

Friends @ VLC and/or FFmpeg, if this is about video output with some internet data source?

You would also need V8, the Javascript interpreter running. It has a lot of dependencies.

Hi

I'm also guessing that is already something ported to run Node.js apps on OS/2, since some apps (like Riot IM) already run in Firefox for OS/2.
Is that something exclusive for Firefox or something in Node.js can run in stand alone mode without too much effort ?

Regards
