Things we learned so far

Let's sum up what we have learned so far. We learned what V8 engine is and how it's developed by Google Chrome as a JavaScript engine, what Node.js is and how it was started as a problem-solving technique to a full-fledged application development platform. We learned about the Node Package Manager and how it can be used in the Node.js application development. We then learned about where to download Node.js, how to install it, and what dependencies we have to take in consideration while developing for Node.js, and finally, we learned to write a simple server using Node.js and seen its output in a browser. This is a check point and if you are still confused about Node.js, please read through again and then move on.
