node.js, commonly just called Node, is often used for developing applications that rely on the ability to run javascript both on the client and server side. Running the same language on both the client and the server benefits from improved code reusability and the less context switching.

A notable feature of node.js is that it is non-blocking – if one task stalls or pauses for an I/O operation, another can take over while it is idle. This allows for high efficiency as the program as a whole never has to idle and wait for one task to finish. Libraries such as async take advantage of this capability.
