- 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:

• Returns a new <0>Buffer</0> that references the same memory as the original, but offset and cropped by the <0>start</0> and <0>end</0> indices.

  • Devuelve un nuevo Buffer que hace referencia a la misma memoria del original, pero se desplaza y se recorta por los índices start y end.

• Modifying the new <0>Buffer</0> slice will modify the memory in the original <0>Buffer</0> because the allocated memory of the two objects overlap.

  • La modificación de la porción del nuevo <0>Buffer</0> modificará la memoria en el <0>Buffer</0> original porque la memoria asignada de los dos objetos se superpone.

• Reads a signed 32-bit integer from <0>buf</0> at the specified <0>offset</0> with the specified endian format (<0>readInt32BE()</0> returns big endian, <0>readInt32LE()</0> returns little endian).

  • Lee un entero de 32-bit desde buf en el offset especificado con el formato endian especificado (readInt32BE() devuelve big endian, readInt32LE() devuelve little endian).
