Managed Node.js Hosting for Creative Developers

Node.js is an Open-source JavaScript-based platform introduced in 2009, by Ryan Dahl, for Linux and MacOS. At a high level, Node.js combines the Google V8 JavaScript engine, a single-threaded non-blocking event loop, and a low-level I/O API. This makes it perfect for server-side scripting unifying it with client-side scripting under the same language. Its package ecosystem – NPM was written by Isaac Schlueter and launched in 2010.

Node.js is an extremely scalable open-source, cross-platform JavaScript run-time environment that executes JavaScript code outside of a browser. With an event-driven and non-blocking I/O design, Node.js is not only extremely lightweight, but it’s also very efficient.

Node.js mostly used for non-blocking, event-driven servers, due to its single-threaded nature. It can be used for traditional web sites and back-end API services but designed with real-time, push-based architectures in mind.

Additionally, Node.js is easy to learn, extremely scalable and provides great freedom in building apps.

There are lots of Node releases — the most current of them contain essential bug fixes, support for fresh versions of ECMAScript (JavaScript) standards, in addition to enhancements to the Node APIs.

Generally, you should consider using the most recent LTS release as it would be much more stable than a current release, while still having features that are relatively recent (and is still under active maintenance). You would need to use the Current release in case you need a feature that’s not in the LTS version.

You can always deploy different Node.js versions via the cPanel Node.js app selector and give them a try without the need to manually install anything.

NPM comes pre-installed on all FastCloud hosting plans. You can access all the modules listed on the npm website with the use of the npm CLI tool that gets installed by default with Node.js. We also have a step by step tutorial on how to use the Node Package Manager to get you started.
