"Node, Javascript will never be the same!"
What do you like best about Node.js?

The thousand of modules that can be applied for EVERY needed circumstance.,If you need something, there is always an npm module that will save your life. At this point, everything to fulfill your needs exists. Also, if you already know Javascript, working with Node will be easy because everything is in that language.

Also, you can incorporate a lot of modules that will save your life when you need it the most. They are small services that will simplify the way you code. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Node.js?

It doesn't have a clear manual when you are a begginer, and you have to study by yourself or look for tutorials/teachers. Also, you need to have a lot of experience if you want to get a job. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Server side coding with JS -Nodejs"
What do you like best about Node.js?

NodeJs is incredibly fast, robust, secure, and easy at the same time. You can learn it pretty fast if you know the basics of javascript. NPM, The Package Manager of Nodejs, is a very efficient tool for managing & installing any JS library out there. Its great community support is like a cherry on the top. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Node.js?

Some of its features like callbacks makes the code less readable and very difficult to manage. A beginner can suffer in maintaining code in NodeJS. Upgrading packages is difficult here as the upgraded version might have removed / modified previous functionalities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Nodejs - Single threaded"
What do you like best about Node.js?

Though nodeJs is single threaded, things can be done asynchronously.

The concept of async, await, promises makes it super useful.

The fact that it has a huge community in itself is a plus.

The other important plus factor is that I has been built on google v8 engine makes it super fast. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Node.js?

Like golang where we can run things on multiple core at the same time, nodejs lacks in that aspect. (So support for multiple cores in future would be an added advantage) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"The light way for building fast and scalable network applications"
What do you like best about Node.js?

It's an easy way to build applications in a light environment. It's a complete tool for the developer. You can launch both the frontend and backend of web apps using JavaScript. It's flexible, light, Nodejs is supported in all primary services (i.e., AWS, GoogleCloud, Azure), and all web server provides. Nodejs also offer a package manager (NPM), so you can gain productivity when building in a group; you can develop and deploy your application "on the fly." Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Node.js?

Nodejs is single-threaded, and if you have a core CPU, it will only run on one core only. Nodejs is non-blocking which means that all functions are delegated to the event loop, and different threads execute them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Node JS : Backend with javascript"
What do you like best about Node.js?

Node js is a powerful javascript based framework that is used at the backend of a application. One can make the whole project with Nodejs by using famous templating engines like ejs pug etc. Its simple to learn for those who knows javascript and is brilliantly competing with famous languages like python. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Node.js?

Its my favourite language to play and develop with and i face no issue with it. Its has a very broad community managing it enabling it as a tough competitor with other languages. I highly recommend the use of in the projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Life is Node"
What do you like best about Node.js?

All the features like files, sockets, creating rest API's, serving, deploying, run time, I/O Operations, Async/Await, event loop, etc. are very easy to learn and faster to apply. Literally, we can create a backend service from scratch and deploy it within few hours. Nodejs is javascript run time that allows solving many real-time problems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Node.js?

It can be improved more. Security is one of the main concerns. Concurrent requests handling should also be scalable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
