20150114_Wed - NodeJS

What I learned about Node.js -
 Normally Java Script runs only on your browser. I can only access your web page.

node.js allows Java.Script to run on your computer.
It uses Google Chrome's V8 engine.  Now the V8 engine can run on your computer.
You can now access files on your computer (you couldn't do before on JS), you can
listen to network traffic, you can listen to http requests, you can access databases directly.

You can do two things with node.js
        - utilities on your machine
             utilities for day-in day-out development. Gulp, Grunt, Yeoman
        - web server (express, koa) express js

node -v  (show version)

   Loads a single web page and in the page we can load different views.
