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 57% of the project!

Translation Overview

For this contribution I started to translate the contents of the Net.md folder. The net module contains functions to create both servers and clients and explains the purpose of each of them.

To expand the translated information a little bit, I will briefly explain some of the functions described there:

server.close([callback])

Prevents the server from accepting new connections and maintains existing connections. This function is asynchronous, the server is finally closed when all connections are terminated and a ['close'] event is issued (this is issued when the server is closed, it is not issued until all connections are closed).

server.listen(handle[,callback])

The handle object can be set for a server or a socket (anything with an underlying _handle member).
This will cause the server to accept connections in the specified handle, but it is presumed that the file descriptor or handle has already been bound to a port or a domain socket.
This function is asynchronous. When the server has been linked, the ['listening'] event will be issued (Emitted when the server has been bound after calling server.listen). The last callback parameter will be added as a listener for the ['listening'] event.

When we say that a function is asynchronous, it is based that it can be fulfilled now or in the future. That is, the variables can be called or assigned at any time during the execution of the program.

I leave some examples of the work done:

Proof of Authorship

This counter includes non-translatable words, so it is necessary to work on more content to extract an average of 1000 translatable words.
