This article explains how to use Node.js's built‑in http/https modules to call third‑party APIs and demonstrates three concurrency techniques—Promise.all, async/await with Promise.race, and EventEmitter—to perform parallel requests efficiently, including code examples for constructing requests, handling responses, and error management.
This article explains the fundamentals and internal mechanics of Node.js readable streams, covering their history, data structures like BufferList, state management, key APIs such as push, read, pipe, and how they inherit from EventEmitter to enable efficient, low‑memory data processing.
This tutorial provides a comprehensive introduction to Node.js, covering its runtime environment, core global objects, module system, command‑line interface development, npm package management, script automation, and event handling with practical code examples and explanations for front‑end engineers transitioning to back‑end development.
The article contrasts push‑based reactive programming with imperative code, then walks through a simple EventEmitter with manual cleanup, examines Redux’s store subscriptions and middleware overhead, explores Mobx’s automatic dependency tracking via getters, setters and autorun, and compares the boilerplate, performance, and hidden‑dependency trade‑offs before previewing a future post on using Observables for asynchronous events.
This article explains key Node.js design patterns—including EventEmitter, streams, control‑flow libraries, coding style, testing, and logging—providing practical guidance and recommended tools for building robust, maintainable backend applications.
