What is the difference between Node.js and JavaScript?

The question is about Node.js

Answer:

JavaScript is the most usable programming language, employed majorly for client-side scripting in web browsers in creating interactive web pages. Node.js is the runtime environment that enables running JavaScript on the server side, which helps the developer build server-side applications dealing with tasks such as handling HTTP requests and interacting with databases. While JavaScript is the language, Node.js enables its usage beyond the browser on the server.
