- What is Node?

The Node environment comprises everything you need to run a program written in JavaScript(JS).

Node.js first started when the original developers of JS extended its functionalities from something you could only run in the browser to something you could execute on your computer as a independent application.

Now you can do much more with JavaScript than just creating interactive websites and web apps. Modern JavaScript has the same capabilites as other scripting languages like Python, and therefore it can do the same as these.

Both your browser's JavaScript and Node.js environment run on the V8 JavaScript runtime engine. This engine takes your JS code and converts it into a much faster machine code (machine code is a low level code that the computer can execute without needing to first interpret it).

Contribution Specifications

- Translation Overwiew

In this section, my translation was again focused on the guides related to the Buffer functionalities, specifically on the Class Buffer building commands, its properties, its call methods and the allocation and Management of the system's memory for the Buffer. The documentation is also related with the encoding parameters and methods used on Node.js

- Examples sentences in Spanish:

• <0>encoding</0> {string} If <0>value</0> is a string, this is the encoding used to determine the binary representation of the string that will be searched for in <0>buf</0>.

  • <0>encoding</0> {string} Si <0>value</0> es una cadena, esta es la codificación utilizada para determinar la representación binaria de la cadena que se buscará en <0>buf</0>.

• Applications that wish to modify the length of a <0>Buffer</0> should therefore treat <0>length</0> as read-only and use [<0>buf.slice()</0>] to create a new <0>Buffer</0>.

  • Las aplicaciones que deseen modificar la longitud de un Buffer, por lo tanto, deberían tratar a length como de solo lectura y utilizar a [buf.slice()] para crear un nuevo Buffer.

• While the <0>length</0> property is not immutable, changing the value of <0>length</0> can result in undefined and inconsistent behavior.

  • Aunque la propiedad length no es inmutable, cambiar el valor de length puede resultar en un comportamiento indefinido e incoherente.
