Node.js v19.8.0 for Linux ARM64

Node.js, also known as Node, is an open-source, cross-platform JavaScript runtime environment. It allows executing JavaScript code outside the browser. Created by Ryan Dahl in 2009, Node.js aims to build high-performance web servers and network applications. It is powered by Google Chrome's V8 JavaScript engine, enabling it to run on various operating systems such as Windows, Linux, Unix, and Mac OS X. One of the key features of Node.js is its event-driven and non-blocking I/O model, making it well-suited for handling a large number of concurrent connections, thus excelling in real-time applications like online games, chat applications, and real-time communication services. Additionally, Node.js adopts a modular architecture, facilitating code sharing and reuse through npm (Node package manager), greatly fostering the development and expansion of the Node.js ecosystem. Apart from server-side development, Node.js is increasingly utilized in building toolchains, desktop applications, IoT devices, and more. With capabilities to handle file systems, interact with databases, and process network requests, developers can write full-stack applications in JavaScript, significantly enhancing development efficiency and convenience. In practice, many large enterprises and organizations have embraced Node.js as the development platform for their web applications, including Netflix, PayPal, and Walmart, leveraging its performance improvements, streamlining development processes, and enabling faster responses to market demands.
