    Node.js is a server-side JavaScript runtime that makes it easy to build fast, scalable network applications. Many enterprise companies have adopted Node.js because of its event-driven, non-blocking I/O model, which makes it lightweight and efficient.

    Over the last few years, the Node.js team here at Red Hat have created a handful of valuable Cheat Sheets highlighting important aspects of both the Node.js runtime as well as certain JavaScript language features.

    Getting Started

    This Node.js cheat sheet helps developers master the most useful command-line flags to customize Node.js’s behavior. You’ll save time and energy looking up how to do everyday development tasks like executing scripts, debugging, and monitoring your Node.js applications.

    Language Features

    The JavaScript language has many features that are important.  The team has created cheat sheets for those features that are a core part of the Node.js experience.
