Unexpected token ILLEGAL (ELF) Raspberry Pi Node Webkit Linux v0.31.3

I downloaded the sdk executable from dl.nwjs.io/v031.3, tried 32 and 64 bit version for Linux.

I try to run these on a raspberry pi 3b+, with node Desktop/nwjs-sdk-v0.31.3-linux-x64/nw

get this error:

(function (exports, require, module, __filename, __dirname) { ?ELF???

SyntaxError: Invalid or unexpected token
 at new Script 
....... at startup (internal/bootstrap/node.js:240:19)

Note I am running the code straight from nwjs.io, not copying any whitespace characters in from stackoverflow or other sources like somerelated questions suggest.

The reason why it is not working is because you are trying to run NW.js compiled for x86 (and x64) platforms but Raspberry Pi uses ARM architecture.

You can find a NW.js binary that will work in all Raspberry Pi versions out of the box here: https://github.com/jalbam/nwjs_rpi
