Project Details

Node.js is an open-source, cross-platform JavaScript run-time environment that executes JavaScript code outside of a browser.

Node.js came into existence when the original developers of JavaScript extended it from something you could only run in the browser to something you could run on your machine as a standalone application.

In simple words, it's an open source execution environment for developing web applications, which is event-based, it uses the V8 engine to provide an execution environment that compiles and executes JavaScript at a higher speed. It is possible to run Node.js without any restriction on Windows, Linux and Mac OS X.

It should be noted that it is NOT a server language, this means that it executes code, so it could be understood as an interpreter.

Contribution Specifications

Node.js is currently being translated into 33 languages. I'm contributing to translate it into the Spanish language.

So far, we have managed to translate 53% of the project!

Translation Overview

I have finished translating the folder ChangeLog_V7.md

Previously I have added several examples of the work done within this folder, as well as some learned concepts. All the work consisted in translating all the notable changes made to a project, change records such as new features or bug fixes.

I also translated the Building node with Ninja folder, a guide that shows how to build Node.js using ninja considering that it is faster than using make.

Make is a build automation tool that automatically builds executable programs and libraries from source code by reading files called Makefiles which specify how to derive the target program.
Besides building programs, make can be used to manage any project where some files must be updated automatically from others whenever the others change.

Here we can see how make is executed from the Atom editor:

In contrast, Ninja differs from other build systems in two major respects:

• It is designed to have its input files generated by a higher-level build system.
• It is designed to run builds as fast as possible.

Is a small build system with a focus on speed, that's where his name comes from.

As this guide is quite short and easy, I will place it here as an example of the work done:
