Make a webapp launch a program












0















I am looking to build an app with a web interface,but that also need to run some code on the user's machine(node.js). So basically it has 2 components.



I don't know how can I make the web ui to launch the node.js program on the user machine. I've seen websites that send a comand(I think they send a URL,but I am not sure) that will open an associate app on the user computer (for example a torrent website and a torrent app),so I know it is possible.
