Use the Node `net` API in Chrome Apps
chrome-net is a JavaScript module that enables developers to use the Node.js `net` API for TCP networking within Chrome Packaged Apps, rather than working directly with Chrome's lower-level `chrome.sockets` API. Created by Feross Aboukhadijeh, John Hiesey, and Jan Schär, the project provides a familiar Node.js interface that can be compiled with browserify for use in Chrome applications. The module supports standard TCP operations including client connections, server creation, data streaming, and the pipe API, with full compatibility with Node's net module documentation.
