Node Js

Fundamentals
Event-Driven Architecture: Uses events and
callbacks for asynchronous operations.
Non-Blocking I/O: Doesn’t wait for
operations to complete before moving to
the next task.
Global Objects: process, console, Buffer,
__dirname.
Modules: require (CommonJS) vs import (ES
Modules).
3
Asynchronous Programming
Callbacks: Functions passed as
arguments to handle async results.
Promises: Handle async operations with
.then() and .catch().
Async/Await: Syntactic sugar over
Promises for cleaner code.
Event Loop: Mechanism that handles
async callbacks in phases (timers, I/O,
etc.).
4
File System & Streams
fs Module: Read/write files
synchronously or
asynchronously.
Streams: Handle large data
chunks efficiently (Readable,
Writable, Pipe).
5
Networking
HTTP/HTTPS Modules: Create
servers and make requests.
RESTful APIs: Design endpoints
for CRUD operations.
WebSockets: Real-time
communication ([Link] or
ws).
Debugging & Performance 6
--inspect Flag: Debug with
Chrome DevTools.
Clustering: Utilize multi-core
CPUs with the cluster
module.
Memory Leaks: Identify using
heap snapshots.
Security 7
[Link]: Secure HTTP
headers.
Input Validation: Sanitize
user inputs to prevent
attacks.
Rate Limiting: Prevent brute-
force attacks.
8
Databases
MongoDB: NoSQL database
with Mongoose ODM.
SQL: PostgreSQL/MySQL with
Sequelize or TypeORM.
Redis: Caching and real-time
features.
9
Testing
Unit Tests: Jest/Mocha for
isolated function testing.
Integration Tests:
Supertest for API
endpoints.
