Node.js's popularity

Why the node.js is so popular.

Node.js is made by using JavasScript language. Now you can write the javascript code into web server through the node.js, now we can share the javascript code between clent and server. Which can not be acheived by other server side language like php, ruby,  python.
As much as we can share the javascript code between client and server, the cost of web application would be less.

Javascript is event driving programming language, which means the block of code would be executed on particular event. The Node.js uses this concept for acheive high scalable server, You can say the work would be done with non-block concept through node.js, which means there the work could be done in parallel way, The  particular program does not wait to finish other particular work for start his/her work.

Node.js uses the chorme's  V8 JavaScript Engine (it compiles and executes the javascript) for increases the performance for particular application which is made by using node.js. On server some time there need to binary data manupulation so Node.js uses v8 javascript engine for it.
