Application
The application is the instance created by the Goa class. It can provide the callback listener via the callback method, as well as start listening for connections itself. Application extends the EventEmitter class, so it's possible to listen on events, e.g.,
app.on('error', (err) => {
// handle error
})_goa.Application extends events.EventEmitter: The application interface.
