yes, localhost . Localhost works for node.js server, but the solid server fails silently so far.

You can get a static address from the local router (DHCP server to be precise) for the local network in the same as a local server. But a phone by definition changes networks quite often so my intended purpose was not have the solid server accessible from outside the phone. That is, localhost is perfect for local, private access. I know Solid is meant to be shared.

I asked here if anybody has done this, but got no replies.

Nodejs Solid Server on mobile

Has anybody created (or attempted) a node.js solid server on a mobile device – android or IOS? Somebody has created a node.js server that runs on Android, IOS and React. In theory it should be possible to bring the standard solid server on top of that and I’d like to try it, but has anybody tried it yet? Even node-solid-server on node.js on termux counts, although this seems too heavy other than prototyping. Why would I want that? In short so that my game/app can work without an internet conn…

Again the purpose is to have a store private for the user, which can then be moved, copied or maybe cached to another POD on the internet, and then be shared with others. You still get sharing just for the same user on the device.
