Node.js

Node.js is a JavaScript runtime built on Chrome's V8 engine that enables server-side execution of JavaScript. It uses an event-driven, non-blocking I/O model that makes it efficient for building scalable network applications, APIs, and real-time services. Node.js itself is a runtime and standard library, not an API service, so no OpenAPI specification is published.

Node.js is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include JavaScript, Node.js, Runtime, and Server-Side.

Node.js’ developer surface includes documentation, engineering blog, and 6 more developer resources.
