If I wanted to check which Node WebKit version I'm using, how would I do that from a command line?

To know the version of node-webkit in app so you can determine whether certain APIs are available, to get it you can use:
process.versions['node-webkit']
And to quickly know the node-webkit's version you are using now, you can type nw:version
in the toolbar, then node-webkit would print the versions like:
node-webkit v0.3.5
node.js v0.8.14
If you are using Node Webkit Builder then use nwbuild -v
or nwbuild --version

Thanks for the effort, but that does not answer my question. – Saran Feb 27 '15 at 10:21

Launch node webkit from command line:
nw
Then type nw:version
in the address bar to get the version number.

Thanks for the effort. Seems that the nw version can't be read without starting the webkit. I'll accept @UtsavDawn answer b/c it was the first and essentially provides the same information as yours. – Saran Mar 20 '15 at 10:17

nw ls
from the command line gets a list of local cached nwjs versions, which may be helpful.
