Where does node file system (fs.writeFile) writes to on default in Meteor.js?

I am using the fs.writeFile method in the following way:

        fs = require('fs');
        fs.writeFile('message.txt', 'Hello Node.js', (err) => {
            console.log('It\'s saved!');

            fs.readFile('message.txt', function (data) {

                console.log("Asynchronous read: " + data.toString());
            });
        });

output:

It's saved!
Asynchronous read: Hello Node.js

Since I receive the expected output, I assume that the file message.txt is created somewhere, and I am actually writing and reading to/from it. But I can not find it anywhere on my system. So where is message.txt created?

I am using Meteor.js

I found the file by using the command process.cwd() in my console.

Since I am using Meteor.js, the file is saved on default to:

../.meteor/local/build/programs/server
