Plain js can be written and rendered in a html file, or in a js file and then included in the html. But with my Phaser.IO project, in order to get it to work I have to start a local web server. Why is this? Is it because of its referencing based of / of a typical www root?

Is it because of its referencing based of / of a typical www root?
That's likely, yes. If you open an HTML file locally, you're using the file: pseudo-scheme. If you then have a relative URL starting with a /, that's going to the root of your filesystem. (If you're on Windows, the only things [waves hands] at the root are drives like C:.)

I would like to access website A's localstorage from website B's script, how could I do that?
If that is not possible in any way how could I save a string from website A (using a JS script) to my computer and how could I read it from website B's script?
One possible option is to make a .txt file in the same root directory and provide its path to where you want to use the string.
If you want to use it in a javascript file, you can refer: How to read text file in JavaScript
I hope this helps!

I am trying to create a js file in my Nodejs which is not a middleware. It will store a function that will receive value and output a result using module exports. I wanted to know what would be an appropriate place to have this file on.
I cannot keep it in the middleware folder because it is not a middleware. I cannot keep it inside the public folder where because I only keep my front end scripts. I also do not want to keep it in my routes folder
It depends on your current file structure and standards, where one keeps backend scripts.
I would have put it inside a folder src/internals or src/scripts along with other scripts used for that particular project.

I have followed many tutorials on how to host via GitHub Pages and well I can't get it to work. Git confuses me alot because I push my html to my gh-pages branch and after an hour my site still didn't work.
How can I fully set up a site using GitHub Pages?
You would have to follow the file structure for it to work. For the main user/organization site, use the master branch. For project sites, use gh-pages. You'd also have to put your index.html in the root folder. You can get more info at https://pages.github.com/
The problem you're not seeing your page is that you're missing index.html in the root folder. Move index.html of the web_files folder and fix the paths referenced in your page.

I look for the best way to hide the code of a solution built with Electron.
Any ideas?
To build the solution with Electron having asar files is not enough. I really need to hide the code so it should not be easy to retrieve.
There are some possibilities. Take a look at https://developers.google.com/closure/library/docs/closurebuilder. It produces a Java' compiled output content (.jar). Then, you can use a jar module for Node.JS in order to access the internal content (like https://www.npmjs.com/package/jarfile).

Do i have to use different languages?
Javascript that is used in browsers, like jQuery, has no access to the filesystem. It is a security restriction, otherwise any tom dick or harry on the internet could seriously mess up your computer.
The only filesystem access allowed is Cookies.
If you want to achieve something like this, you will need something like node.js, although I have no experience with node.
