### **1. [Link]**
#### **Introduction to [Link]**
- **Theory**:
- [Link] is a runtime environment for executing JavaScript outside the browser.
- Built on Chrome’s V8 engine, it uses an **event-driven**, **non-blocking I/O**
model.
- Ideal for building scalable network applications (APIs, real-time apps).
- **Code**: Basic HTTP Server
```javascript
const http = require('http');
const server = [Link]((req, res) => {
[Link](200, { 'Content-Type': 'text/plain' });
[Link]('Hello, [Link]!');
});
[Link](3000, () => [Link]('Server running on port 3000'));
```
#### **Modules and `require()`**
- **Theory**:
- Modules are reusable code blocks (e.g., `fs`, `path`, `http`).
- Use `require()` to import modules.
- Create custom modules with `[Link]`.
- **Code**: Custom Module
```javascript
// [Link]
const add = (a, b) => a + b;
[Link] = { add };
// [Link]
const { add } = require('./[Link]');
[Link](add(2, 3)); // Output: 5
```
#### **Asynchronous Programming**
- **Theory**:
- **Callbacks**: Functions passed as arguments to handle async tasks.
- **Promises**: Represent eventual completion/failure of async operations.
- **Async/Await**: Syntactic sugar for promises.
- **Code**: Async/Await Example
```javascript
const fetchData = () => {
return new Promise((resolve) => {
setTimeout(() => resolve("Data fetched!"), 2000);
});
};
const getData = async () => {
const data = await fetchData();
[Link](data); // Output after 2 sec: "Data fetched!"
};
getData();
```
---
### **2. [Link]**
#### **Routing**
- **Theory**:
- Define endpoints using HTTP methods (`[Link]()`, `[Link]()`).
- Route parameters (`/users/:id`), query strings (`?name=John`).
- **Code**: Basic Route
```javascript
const express = require('express');
const app = express();
[Link]('/', (req, res) => [Link]('Home Page'));
[Link](3000);
```
#### **Middleware**
- **Theory**:
- Middleware functions execute between the request and response cycle.
- Types:
- **Built-in**: `[Link]()`, `[Link]()`.
- **Third-party**: `morgan`, `cors`.
- **Custom**: Define your own logic (e.g., logging).
- **Code**: Custom Middleware
```javascript
[Link]((req, res, next) => {
[Link](`Request URL: ${[Link]}`);
next(); // Pass control to the next middleware
});
```
#### **RESTful API Example**
```javascript
let users = [{ id: 1, name: 'John' }];
[Link]('/users', (req, res) => [Link](users));
[Link]('/users', [Link](), (req, res) => {
[Link]([Link]);
[Link](201).send('User created');
});
```
---
### **3. MongoDB**
#### **CRUD Operations**
- **Theory**:
- **Create**: `[Link]()`
- **Read**: `[Link]()`
- **Update**: `[Link]()`
- **Delete**: `[Link]()`
- **Code**: MongoDB Shell Commands
```bash
use mydb;
[Link]({ name: "Alice", age: 30 });
[Link]({ age: { $gt: 25 } });
```
#### **Indexing**
- **Theory**:
- Improves query performance by creating indexes on fields.
- Types: Single field, compound, text, geospatial.
- **Code**: Create Index
```bash
[Link]({ name: 1 }); // 1 for ascending order
```
---
### **4. Mongoose**
#### **Schemas and Models**
- **Theory**:
- **Schema**: Defines structure of documents (data types, validators).
- **Model**: Wrapper for schema to perform CRUD operations.
- **Code**: User Model
```javascript
const mongoose = require('mongoose');
const userSchema = new [Link]({
name: { type: String, required: true },
age: { type: Number, min: 18 }
});
const User = [Link]('User', userSchema);
```
#### **Population (Relationships)**
- **Theory**:
- Refers to linking documents across collections (like SQL joins).
- **Code**: Reference Another Model
```javascript
const postSchema = new [Link]({
title: String,
author: { type: [Link], ref: 'User' }
});
const Post = [Link]('Post', postSchema);
// Populate author data when fetching a post
[Link]().populate('author').exec();
```

### **1. [Link]**
#### **Event Loop**
- **Theory**:
- [Link] uses a **single-threaded event loop** to handle asynchronous operations.
- **Phases**:
1. **Timers** (Execute `setTimeout`, `setInterval` callbacks).
2. **Pending Callbacks** (Execute I/O-related callbacks).
3. **Poll** (Retrieve new I/O events).
4. **Check** (Execute `setImmediate` callbacks).
- **Non-blocking I/O**: File/network operations are offloaded to the OS kernel.
- **Image Suggestion**:
![Event Loop Phases]
([Link]
*(Visualize the event loop phases from the [Link] docs.)*
- **Code**: Event Emitter
```javascript
const EventEmitter = require('events');
const emitter = new EventEmitter();
[Link]('message', (data) => {
[Link]('Message received:', data);
});
[Link]('message', 'Hello Event Loop!');
```
#### **Streams**
- **Theory**:
- **Streams** process data in chunks (memory-efficient for large files).
- Types:
- **Readable**: Read data (e.g., file read stream).
- **Writable**: Write data (e.g., file write stream).
- **Duplex**: Both read and write (e.g., TCP socket).
- **Transform**: Modify data (e.g., compression).
- **Code**: File Copy with Streams
```javascript
const fs = require('fs');
const readStream = [Link]('[Link]');
const writeStream = [Link]('[Link]');
[Link](writeStream);
```
---
### **2. [Link]**
#### **Middleware Stack**
- **Theory**:
- Middleware functions execute sequentially. Use `next()` to pass control.
- Example Flow:
```plaintext
Request → Logger Middleware → Auth Middleware → Route Handler → Response
```
- **Image Suggestion**:
*(Show middleware layers in Express.)*
- **Code**: Middleware Chain
```javascript
[Link]((req, res, next) => {
[Link]('First middleware');
next();
});
[Link]((req, res, next) => {
[Link]('Second middleware');
next();
});
```
#### **RESTful API with Authentication**
- **Code**: JWT Authentication
```javascript
const jwt = require('jsonwebtoken');
[Link]('/login', (req, res) => {
const user = { id: 1, name: 'John' };
const token = [Link](user, 'secret_key', { expiresIn: '1h' });
[Link]({ token });
});
// Middleware to verify token
const auth = (req, res, next) => {
const token = [Link]('Authorization');
[Link](token, 'secret_key', (err, user) => {
if (err) return [Link](403).send('Invalid token');
[Link] = user;
next();
});
};
[Link]('/profile', auth, (req, res) => {
[Link](`Welcome ${[Link]}`);
});
```
---
### **3. MongoDB**
#### **Aggregation Pipeline**
- **Theory**:
- Processes documents through stages (filter, group, sort).
- Common Stages:
- `$match`: Filter documents.
- `$group`: Group by a field.
- `$sort`: Sort results.
- **Image Suggestion**:
*
- **Code**: Group Users by Age
```javascript
[Link]([
{ $match: { age: { $gte: 18 } } }, // Filter adults
{ $group: { _id: "$age", count: { $sum: 1 } } }, // Group by age
{ $sort: { _id: 1 } } // Sort by age
]);
```
#### **Transactions**
- **Code**: Multi-Document Transaction
```javascript
const session = await [Link]();
[Link]();
try {
await [Link](
{ _id: 'user1' },
{ $inc: { balance: -100 } },
{ session }
);
await [Link]([{ user: 'user1', amount: 100 }], { session });
await [Link]();
} catch (err) {
await [Link]();
} finally {
[Link]();
```
---
### **4. Mongoose**
#### **Plugins**
- **Theory**:
- Reusable logic for schemas (e.g., timestamps, soft delete).
- **Code**: Timestamp Plugin
```javascript
function timestampPlugin(schema) {
[Link]({
createdAt: { type: Date, default: [Link] },
updatedAt: Date
});
[Link]('save', function (next) {
[Link] = [Link]();
next();
});
}
const userSchema = new [Link]({ name: String });
[Link](timestampPlugin);
```
#### **Population**
- **Code**: Fetch Posts with Author Details
```javascript
const postSchema = new [Link]({
title: String,
author: { type: [Link], ref: 'User' }
});
[Link]({ title: 'Hello World' })
.populate('author', 'name email') // Only fetch name & email
.exec((err, post) => {
[Link]([Link]); // Output: John
});
```

### **Detailed Theory & Code**

#### **1. [Link]**
##### **Event Loop**
- **Theory**:
[Link] uses an **event-driven, non-blocking I/O model**. The event loop handles
asynchronous tasks in phases:
1. **Timers** (`setTimeout`, `setInterval`).
2. **Pending I/O Callbacks**.
3. **Poll** (retrieve new I/O events).
4. **Check** (`setImmediate`).
- **Code**: Simple Event Loop Example
```javascript
[Link]('Start');
setTimeout(() => [Link]('Timer 1'), 0);
setImmediate(() => [Link]('Immediate 1'));
[Link](() => [Link]('Next Tick'));
[Link]('End');
// Output: Start → End → Next Tick → Timer 1 → Immediate 1
```
##### **Streams**
- **Theory**:
Streams process data in chunks (memory-efficient for large files).
- **Readable**: Read data (e.g., file read).
- **Writable**: Write data (e.g., file write).
- **Code**: Read File with Streams
```javascript
const fs = require('fs');
const readStream = [Link]('[Link]', 'utf8');
[Link]('data', (chunk) => [Link](chunk));
```
##### **Child Processes**
