Node.js

A short explanation of Node.js in our glossary

Node.js is an event-based runtime environment for building, among other things, server-side scripts, networking tools and web apps. Used mainly for web-server programming, the framework is based on Google Chrome's V8 engine for executing JavaScript code. V8 compiles JavaScript directly into native machine code, known as just-in-time compilation. By making JavaScript available for server-side programming as well, Node.js aims to unify web development.
