Worker Threads in Node.js: A Complete Guide for Multithreading in JavaScript
Node.js is known for its non-blocking, event-driven architecture, making it great for handling I/O-bound tasks like web requests and file operations. But when it comes to CPU-intensive tasks, things get tricky. Because Node.js runs JavaScript in a single-threaded environment, heavy computations can block the event loop and degrade application performance. That’s where Worker Threads come in.
