Node.js: Node.js is a server-side JavaScript runtime built on Chrome's V8 engine, enabling fast, event-driven, non-blocking backend services for APIs, real-time apps, and microservices.

Node.js Use Cases

Node.js excels at: REST API servers (high concurrency, low CPU per request), real-time applications (chat, notifications, live dashboards via WebSockets), streaming services, and lightweight microservices. Not ideal for CPU-intensive computation (Python or Go is better for ML, data processing).

Node.js in ERPNext Ecosystem

ERPNext uses Node.js for its build system (webpack) and socket.io real-time communication layer. Custom Frappe integrations often use a Node.js middleware layer to transform data between external APIs and ERPNext. Infonoxe builds Node.js backend services for WhatsApp automation, webhook processing, and API aggregation.
