Node.js

Node.js is an open-source runtime environment that allows you to run JavaScript on the server side. It is built on Google's V8 JavaScript engine, known for its speed and efficiency.

Thanks to its asynchronous and event-driven model, Node.js allows you to create scalable network applications, i.e. applications that require high performance, such as chat applications or real-time services.

With a large ecosystem of packages available through npm (Node Package Manager), it is easy to find and integrate different features into applications. Node.js is a popular tool for modern developers who want to build fast and efficient server-side applications.
