We are working with Atom Shell (Currently known as [electron](https://github.com/atom/electron)) to wrap a web application as desktop app and having trouble making cross domain ajax calls due to CORS restriction.

We also tried [nw.js](http://nwjs.io/) (Formerly known as Node-Webkit) and we had no problem making cross domain ajax call with it. Does Atom Shell (Electron) restrict cross domain calls by default?
