Software-update: Node.js 12.10.0

Node.js is open source en platformonafhankelijk, en is gericht op het ontwikkelen van serverside-webapplicaties. Die applicaties worden geschreven in JavaScript en uitgevoerd binnen de Node.js-runtime op de server. Het biedt een event-gedreven omgeving waarbij non-blocking i/o een belangrijk uitgangspunt is geweest. Voor meer informatie verwijzen we naar deze pagina.
