mkdir -p node-webkit

node-webkit will take about 14gb of diskspace, so an external drive is required.
Ignore the following steps, if you will not run out of space

-   plug in the drive
-   sudo mkfs.ext4 /dev/sdX
-   sudo mount /dev/sdX node-webkit
-   sudo chown USER:USER -R node-webkit

cd node-webkit
nano node-webkit/.gclient

paste the following:
solutions = [
   { "name"        : "src",
     "url"         : "https://github.com/rogerwang/chromium.src.git@nw-v0.9.2",

create a 3gb swap file:
sudo fallocate -l 3072M /swap
sudo chmod 600 /swap
sudo mkswap /swap
sudo swapon /swap
sudo nano /etc/fstab

add at the end:
/swap none swap defaults 0 0

- Save

gclient sync --nohooks

this will take a while... downloading required files and source (~14GB)

that's all, now configure gyp and compile with ninja

./build/gyp_chromium content/content.gyp
ninja -C out/Release nw -j4

Compiling will take about 3 to 4 hours

Hello! Could you update the tutorial please? I tried to build nw-v0.12.0 on odroid u3 with ubuntu 14.04.02, but I failed. Thanks!
