In a client app, import and use the vamos module to evaluate Node.js code, with access to some core Node.js modules.

import React from 'react'
import vamos from 'vamos'

export default class extends React.Component {
  state = {
    files: []
  }

  componentDidMount () {
    vamos.eval('fs.readdir(os.homedir())')
      .then(files => {
        this.setState({ files })
      })

    vamos.run('ls ~/')
      .then(stdout => {
        console.log(stdout)
      })
  }

  render () {
    const { files } = this.state

    return (
      <ul>
        {files.map(file => (
          <li key={file}>
            {file}
          </li>
        ))}
      </ul>
    )
  }
}
