3. runs on Windows and Mac
HTML Cons:
1. does not use the latest HTML5 rendering engine
2. slower performance
3. operates under standard HTML security box
Node web kit Pros:
1. super fast HTML rendering powered by latest Google Chromium release
2. full access to the host file system and devices (no security limitations)
3. most efficient memory management since runs as an external process
4. fully integrated into the SignagePlayer for windows (nw.exe)
runs with no toolbar (clean window)
HTML Cons:
1. does not support layering (always on top)
2. only runs on SignagePlayer for windows
3. runs as an external application
Native browser Pros:
1. runs as fast (or as slow) as the default Android default browser
2. nothing special to install or configure
Native browser Cons:

-----
your_app_name.json includes the configuration used to setup your Studio and Player component.
```
{
"name": "your_app_name",
"version": "1.0.457",
"url": "http://signage.me/components/your_app_name/your_app_name.zip",
"property": "page.html",
"desktopUseNode": false,

- debug: when set to desktopUseNode: true, the debug mode allows for remote debugging of the Player component in windows
using node web kit.
