#35 Add to FAQ: Is Node.js a requirement?

Originally at 2014-11-24T14:47:10Z by Hannes Hirzel Richard Eng asks on the 23rd Nov 2014 on the ML: **Question** I learned that Node.js is an installation requirement for Amber. Does this mean that Amber is tied to using Node on the back end? There are other web servers that I prefer to use. **Answer** [nodejs](http://www.nodejs.org/) is required for the most convenient way to develop Amber apps at the moment. It is possible to use other servers but you are on your own (IOW: don't unless you _need_ to; if you must, make sure PUT works by writing the file). For deployment, use server's docs. Deployed amber files is just a couple of of HTML, CSS and JS files, so it's only about serving them.
