Node.js is open source and platform independent, and is focused on developing server-side web applications. Those applications are written in JavaScript and run within the Node.js runtime on the server. It offers an event-driven environment where non-blocking I/O has been an important starting point.

Node v10.6.0 (Current) – Notable Changes

• dns: An experimental promisified version of the dns module is now available. Give it a try with require(‘dns’).promises. #21264
• fs: fs.lchown has been undeprecated now that libuv supports it. #21498
• lib: Atomics.wake is being renamed to Atomics.notify in the ECMAScript specification (reference). Since Node.js now has experimental support for worker threads, we are being proactive and added a notify alias, while emitting a warning if wake is used. #21413 #21518
• n-api: Add API for asynchronous functions. #17887
• util: util.inspect is now able to return a result instead of throwing when the maximum call stack size is exceeded during inspection. #20725
• vm: Add script.createCachedData(). This API replaces the produceCachedData option of the Script constructor that is now deprecated. #20300
• worker: Support for relative paths has been added to the Worker constructor. Paths are interpreted relative to the current working directory. #21407
