Node.js
Open-source runtime for server-side JavaScript.
Node.js is an open-source, cross-platform runtime that lets JavaScript run on the server, outside the browser. It uses Chrome’s V8 engine to execute JavaScript code directly on servers or computers.
It employs an asynchronous, event-driven, non-blocking I/O model, making it suitable for network applications like web servers, APIs, real-time services, and command-line tools. Node.js includes npm for accessing a vast library ecosystem and is widely used in university courses for backend and full-stack JavaScript development.
