Presentation: "Node.js: Asynchronous I/O for Fun and Profit"
Time:
Friday 12:05 - 13:05
Location:
St James’s Suite, Fourth Floor
Abstract:
Node.js is a server-side framework for building high-performance network applications in JavaScript. While this may seem close to unbelievable for those who still remember JavaScript as a source of frustration only, it turns out that JS's support for higher order functions and event-driven programming is a perfect match for building asynchronous I/O-based clients and servers.
This session will introduce asynchronous I/O, show how typical web client and server apps can utilize it, and then introduce Node and the ecosystem of tools and libraries surrounding server-side JavaScript in general and Node in particular.
Keywords: Web, JavaScript, Functional, High-Performance, Network programming
