Hello,
I'm pleased to announce that node-webkit project is migrated to io.js. node-webkit combines Node.js and Chromium to let you call all Node.js modules directly from DOM and enables a new way of writing applications with all Web technologies. It is migrated to io.js for updated V8 engine, which helps a lot when we do the integration with Chromium.
And today the node-webkit project is renamed because both parts of the name are irrelevant now. The new name 'NW.js' is selected by the community, and the github repository was transferred to an organization 'nwjs'. These mark another step towards an open governance model, under which we would like to handle contributions, releases and ownership of the project.
Along with the migration we are announcing a new official website, twitter account, github repo, renamed mailing list, chat room and a new release (v0.12.0-alpha1) with io.js 1.0 included:
