+This code uses the `wget` tool to download the NodeJS binaries from the given URL, and extracts it to the `node_js_layer` directory.  We use `tar` to extract the NodeJS distribution into the `node_js_layer`.  During the extraction we remove the top level directory (i.e. `--strip-components 1`).  This means that we will end up with `${node_js_layer}/bin` and `${node_js_layer}/lib`.  When starting the container the layers `bin` will automatically be added to the runtime `${PATH}`.
 
 The last step in creating a layer is writing a TOML file that contains metadata about the layer. The TOML file's name must match the name of the layer (in this example it's `node-js.toml`). Without this file, the Buildpack lifecycle will ignore the layer directory. For the NodeJS layer, we need to ensure it is available in the launch image by setting the `launch` key to `true`.
