- meet Ryan Dahl
- Creator of Node.js
- not a coder like other from childhood
- stayed away from fame
Got a problem working with web servers
- Web servers handled many connections poorly
- They used blocking I/O (one task blocks others)
- Scaling was so painful
He thought:
“Why not handle everything asynchronously and event-driven?”
So he built Node.js in 2009 as a side project
Based on:
- Google Chrome V8 engine
- Event loop (non-blocking architecture)
- moved JavaScript from browser to server
- Developers could use one language everywhere
Initially Nobody trusted JavaScript for backend
But later Developers realized it's Fast performance ,Real-time apps (chat, streaming)
Companies like Netflix, LinkedIn, PayPal started using it
Now Node.js has became one of the most used backend technologies.
He Left Node.js due to Burnout
And Disagreements in project direction
Disappeared for Years
returned with Deno And said Node.js had:
- Design mistakes
- Security issues
So Deno fixed it using
- Built-in TypeScript
- Better security
- Modern APIs
Legend 🔥

Hoping that it's not a glitch? 🤞
