Node.js is open source en platformonafhankelijk, en is gericht op het ontwikkelen van server-side-webapplicaties. Die applicaties worden geschreven in javascript en uitgevoerd binnen de Node.js-runtime op de server. Het biedt een event driven omgeving aan, waarbij non-blocking I/O een belangrijk uitgangspunt is geweest. Voor meer informatie verwijzen we naar deze pagina. Het ontwikkelteam heeft versie 6.3.0 vrijgegeven en voorzien van de volgende opmerkingen:
