I would strongly advise against running a local http server. Unless if you have a requirement that says that a mobile device must be a server for other clients, I'd be surprised you have a requirement where running a local server on the device itself is the proper solution.
There are experimental plugins available for iOS, not sure about android... None of these local webservers that I know of will handle https requests.
As for running NodeJS, you won‘t be able to publish an iOS app that has a NodeJS implementation. That’s against Apple‘s policy that dictates that all webview code and javascript code must be ran with Apple’s own WKWebView and JavaScriptCore environments.
For android, not sure if there is an existing project out there but if not... you should be able to compile node to arm, and build a JNI wrapper for it, then build a cordova plugin that interfaces with the JNI wrapper.
You can find experimental plugins at: https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugins
Local webserver plugin is specifically found at: https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugins/tree/local-webserver
Since they were experimental, they don't have NPM releases.

Again, as @norman137 said, running a httpd on a mobile device to serve content to other devices sounds like a stretch of the requirement.
> Some requirement is there I think you need to understand the real requirement, not just assume you need a http daemon with SSL support.

Out of curiosity, is anyone actually paid to develop/maintain the cordova libs? Or is it all volunteer based?

There might be a handful of people sponsored by their companies to spend some time working on it, but it's primarily volunteer-based

Interesting, thanks for answering

In the past there were several companies with small teams working full-time on Cordova, but changes in focus and priorities over the years have led to it being volunteer-driven

Hi, I'm having a problem where the File-Plugin silently fails under IOS - the same code works fine under Android, I have a MWE to demo / test against. Seeking paid support/debugging, would suggest a short vidcon to explain goals and context of the use-case and the problem, then request quote for my company. Thanks, Werner
