I want to create a Node.js server in chrome app so that I would be able to run node.js applications through it. The app would run offine therefore the server had to be local.

  • It's not a Node.js server "in a Chrome app", you still use a lot of external (even though local) servers. So this is not a correct answer for your own question. – Xan Jan 15 '16 at 09:59
  • yeah, I mentioned that in my first line that I used node-webkit for making my project to work. – Sumit Jan 15 '16 at 11:20
