Hi,

I created [NW.js Node-RED template](https://github.com/okhiroyuki/nw-node-red).

Currently, macOS version packages can be generated.

If you are interested in NW.js, please check it out.

## What is NW.js

[NW.js](https://github.com/nwjs/nw.js) is very similar to Electron and allows you to create cross-platform applications.

### Features

- Apps written in modern HTML5, CSS3, JS and WebGL.
- Complete support for [Node.js APIs](https://nodejs.org/api/) and all its [third party modules](https://www.npmjs.com/).
- Good performance: Node and WebKit run in the same thread: Function calls are made straightforward; objects are in the same heap and can just reference each other.
- Easy to package and distribute apps.
- Available on Linux, Mac OS X and Windows.
- JavaScript Source Protection

It might help to provide a brief summary of exactly what NW.js actually is in this forum, for those who don't know, like me 🙂
