Node.js Website Development
Node Development is an open-source server environment that runs on various platforms using JavaScript. It’s not a framework, but a runtime environment that allows you to execute JavaScript code on the server-side. The popularity of Node.js has increased dramatically since it was released in 2009.
Notable features of Node.js- Cross-platform compatibility.
- Scalable.
- Commendable data processing ability.
- Additional functionality of NPM.
- Fast data streaming.
Why we love Node.js ?
Node.js is a run-time environment for building sever-side apps in JavaScript. It is efficient and light-weight and runs on Google JavaScript engine.
Real-time
Perfect for developing real-time applications. RTAs are apps that typically process high volume of messages and require low latency. Goof example would be an instant messenger or a live chat.
Productivity
In order to remove this gap between the frontend and the backend web developers, many web development companies are combining frontend and backend teams together into a single unit. This will also go for a smooth workflow.
Connectivity
Where Node.js really shines is in building fast, scalable network applications, as it’s capable of handling a huge number of simultaneous connections with high throughput, which equates to high scalability.
Fullstack JS
Before Node.js, Javascript was only used for client-side development. It was necessary to use a different server-side programming language. In practice, you had to hire separate devs for backend and for frontend. With a growing popularity of Node.js fullstack JavaScript became a reality.
