⚠ This is a module for Icode-Go code editor (2.07+), it must be installed to use NodeJs and NPM:

📱NodeJs:

Node.js is an open source, cross-platform runtime environment for developing server-side and networking applications. Node.js applications are written in JavaScript, and can be run within the Node.js runtime on OS X, Microsoft Windows, Linux, and with Icode-NodeJs - Android.

Following are some of the important features that make Node.js the first choice of software architects.

★ Asynchronous and Event Driven:

All APIs of Node.js library are asynchronous, that is, non-blocking. It essentially means a Node.js based server never waits for an API to return data. The server moves to the next API after calling it and a notification mechanism of Events of Node.js helps the server to get a response from the previous API call.

★ Very Fast:

Being built on Google Chrome's V8 JavaScript Engine, Node.js library is very fast in code execution.

★ Single Threaded but Highly Scalable:

Node.js uses a single threaded model with event looping. Event mechanism helps the server to respond in a non-blocking way and makes the server highly scalable as opposed to traditional servers which create limited threads to handle requests. Node.js uses a single threaded program and the same program can provide service to a much larger number of requests than traditional servers like Apache HTTP Server.

★ No Buffering:

Node.js applications never buffer any data. These applications simply output the data in chunks

💾 NPM Package Manager:

The name npm (Node Package Manager) stems from when npm first was created as a package manager for Node.js.

★ npm is the world's largest Software Registry:

The registry contains over 800,000 code packages.

★ npm is free to use:

You can download all npm public software packages without any registration or logon.

★ npm can manage dependencies:

npm can (in one command line) install all the dependencies of a project.

👍 Icode-Go's integration of NodeJs and NPM make using these tools simple and straightforward, allowing more time to focus on developing.

• NPM can be used through dialogs to make package installation easy.

• NodeJs projects keep everything clean and easy to manage. Run a project with a tap of a finger.

• If you are a traditional noder, we have a command line terminal that works very similar to a SSH client - just in our own little development environment. npm and node are both available from this command line.

• STDIN and STDERR logging.

⚠ This module is for ARM devices.

⚠ NOTICE: npm packages that have source files built on the device (c++ make) will not work on Android. Android does not have a 'build' system to handle these packages. This is not a Icode-NodeJs restriction or flaw, it is beyond our control. All pure JavaScript packages will run perfectly.

📱Device Requirements:

• Icode Go 2.07+ Editor Installed

• Approx. 100 ΜB of internal storage

• 50 MB (basic node app) available RAM (per node instance)
