Project Details

Node.js® is a JavaScript runtime built on Chrome's V8 JavaScript engine.

Node.js is a free, cross-platform, open source server environment to execute JavaScript outside of a browser. Traditionally, JavaScript is used for client side scripting and runs by a JavaScript engine embedded within a browser. With Node.js, JavaScript can be used to write command line programs or server side scripting. By this way, developers only need to learn a single programming language to do both server side and client side programming.

Node.js is built on Chrome’s V8 JavaScript execution engine which was initially built for Google Chrome. Instead of interpreting JavaScript in real time, V8 compiles JavaScript code to native binary machine code to improve the performance. Node.js has an event driven architecture which makes it suitable for web applications with many I/O operations. That is why Node.js is very fast compared to similar technologies. libuv is used to handle asynchronous events across operating systems.

Contribution Specifications

I have used Node.js in a few small projects but never got a chance to see a whole picture of this amazing and popular framework. I am very exciting to start translating Node.js and very looking forward to my new learning journey!

Translation overview

The whole project consists of 1,048,272 words. victory622 has started working on this project. Since this project is extremely large therefore collaborations are required. I will be concentrating on the translation of v8.x folder which has 353,483 words to translate.

This submission

In this submission, I have finished translation of “util.md” and “tty.md”. I have also started working on “url.md”. The tty module provides classes for operating tty input/output streams and the url module provides utilities for URL resolution and parsing.

Regarding the translation, most source strings are easy to translate as I have the background knowledge. Therefore, my focus was on how to make my translation accurate and easy to read for Chinese readers. I would say special thank you to @sunray for his suggestions to make my translations better and easier to understand.

Languages

I translate Node.js from English to Simplified Chinese.

Word Count

Regarding the number of words, this is my 13th contribution to Node.js project and I have translated 1068 words in this submission.

util.md: 2465-2197=268 words

tty.md: 458 words

url.md: 346 words

Total: 268+458+346 = 1072 words
