It’s a simple article on how to run a Node.js app in an LXD container,

Ideally, you would create a container image out of the fresh Node.js installation, then reuse that for future Node.js apps.
I waded through the official instructions of the app in order not to require to run chromium-browser inside the container, thus making it as simple as possible.
