How To Install node-process on Debian 10
Introduction
In this tutorial we learn how to install node-process on Debian 10.
What is node-process
node-process is:
Works in node.js and browsers via the browser.js shim provided with the module.
The goal of this module is not to be a full-fledged alternative to the builtin
process module. This module mostly exists to provide the nextTick functionality
and little more. We keep this module lean because it will often be included by
default by tools like browserify when it detects a module has used the
process global.
It also exposes a “browser” member (i.e. process.browser) which is true in
this implementation but undefined in node. This can be used in isomorphic
code that adjusts it’s behavior depending on which environment it’s running
in.
Node.js is an event-based server-side JavaScript engine.
