Node.js is a renowned technology many companies count on for a high-end backend experience. If we say in numbers, Node.js is the most widely used web development tool utilized by more than 6.3 million websites in the United States. Tech giants, including Netflix, Paypal, and LinkedIn, are reaping the benefits of this technology and taking their website’s overall performance to the next level. But why are they showing a high interest in it? Well, there could be many reasons. From being a multitasker to being light on the server, Node.js always tops the chart in several terms.
Node.js is an incredible backend solution that runs on V8 (the fastest engine for chromium browsers like Google). Created by Ryan Dahl in 2009 with the motive to develop an architecture that can help build complicated programs through basic ones. This runtime environment allows JavaScript to be executed on the server.
