Node.js: The Documentary | An origin story

Ajouté le jeu. 21 mars 2024 Science et technologie Rectangular HD

Back in 2008, most people thought of JavaScript as just a client-side language. But when Google's V8 appeared, young developer Ryan Dahl made the connection between non-blocking servers, V8, and JavaScript. It was by combining these key elements that he was able to create the now hugely popular Node.js.

What young Ryan Dahl probably didn't expect was how much forking drama would follow.
