What is it all about?
Node.js is a JavaScript runtime built on Chrome's V8 JavaScript engine. Node.js uses an event-driven, non-blocking I/O model that makes it lightweight and efficient. Node.js' package ecosystem, npm, is the largest ecosystem of open source libraries in the world.
Key Features
*All shipping features, which V8 considers stable, are turned on by default on Node.js and do NOT require any kind of runtime flag. *Staged features, which are almost-completed features that are not considered stable by the V8 team, require a runtime flag: --harmony. *In progress features can be activated individually by their respective harmony flag, although this is highly discouraged unless for testing purposes. Note: these flags are exposed by V8 and will potentially change without any deprecation notice.
