Run Node.js applications on Android by reimplementing Node.js APIs in Java.
What is node-android?
node-android is a Java-based reimplementation of Node.js that allows developers to run Node.js applications on Android devices. It provides a compatible API with Node.js 0.10.x, enabling server-side JavaScript execution within Android apps without requiring a separate Node.js installation. The project includes core Node.js modules like HTTP, TCP, and EventEmitter, rewritten in Java for Android compatibility.
Android developers who want to run Node.js applications or server-side JavaScript logic directly on Android devices, and developers building peer-to-peer or networked mobile apps using Node.js APIs.
It offers a unique solution for executing Node.js code natively on Android by reimplementing Node.js APIs in Java, avoiding the need for external runtimes or complex workarounds. Developers choose it for its compatibility with existing Node.js modules and its integration with Android's native threading and networking capabilities.
