A decade has gone by since the development of Node.js framework, an open-source platform built on Chrome’s JavaScript runtime for building network applications. It is a JavaScript runtime, a way to use JavaScript like you can PHP on the server-side.

Before its development, web applications were written in a client/server model where the client would request resources from the server and the server would respond with the resources, after which the server would close the connection.

Responding to millions of requests coming in at the same time proved to be a challenge for servers.As a result, requests to servers would be delayed till all other requests were responded to, which wasn’t nice.

This is where Threads came into the picture and allowed a way to run thousands or at least hundreds of requests at once. This multi-threaded system proved to be efficient for CPU intensive applications.

Node.js, the server-side platform, has become a stand-alone name in the industry. Its open and welcoming community of code packages follows the sharing-is-caring approach, which makes the work of developers a lot simpler.

Although it is not perfect, it keeps evolving and that is what makes it a popular choice among coders in today’s diverse and dynamic world of web development.
