I/O Model

De facto language for the web Event-driven Node.js = JavaScript on server

JavaScript

Chrome’s JavaScript runtime V8 is really fast It’s (sort of) compiled

V8

var http = require('http'); http.Server(function (req, res) { res.writeHead(200, {'Content-Type': 'text/plain'}); res.end('Hello World\n'); }).listen(3000);

A simple standalone working HTTP server Web development from the scratch :)

Built-in modules Third-party (> 80,000) Build your own :)

Highly modularised

Node Package Manager

NPM
