Node.js
JavaScript runtime for server-side applications outside the browser.
Node.js is an open-source runtime environment that makes it possible to run JavaScript on the server side, outside the web browser. It is based on Google Chrome's V8 engine and was first released in 2009.
Its defining feature is the event-driven, non-blocking I/O model, which handles many simultaneous connections in a resource-efficient way. The npm package manager gives access to a very large ecosystem of modules, which is why Node.js is frequently used for APIs, real-time services and frontend build tools.
