Why Node.js Exists in the first place?
JavaScript developers are lazy. They don't want to learn another language just because JavaScript doesn’t run on the server side.
That’s when Node.js was born.
It’s just some wrapper around chromes V8 engine, so that, you can have an independent enviroment outside to run Node.js anywhere.
Node.js has changed backend development by bringing JavaScript to the server-side. As a backend developer, Node.js opens up a world of possibilities for building scalable, efficient, and real-time applications.
Setting Up the System
Just install node.js; go to their website and download it. Install the same. If installed correctly, run node -v
to confirm the same.
