SurveyJS
Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App. With SurveyJS form UI libraries, you can build and style forms in a fully-integrated drag & drop form builder, render them in your JS app, and store form submission data in any backend, inc. PHP, ASP.NET Core, and Node.js.
You can create child processes that run concurrently with the application sharing the same port, which helps scale the application within the same server. Clusters can be implemented using the built-in cluster module of Node.js or a library like PM2, widely used in production applications.
Tools like Amplication help developers generate fully functional services based on Typescript and Node.js with popular technologies such as (but not limited to) NestJS, Prisma, PostgreSQL, GraphQL, and MongoDB while ensuring your services are highly scalable and secure.
Node.js executes JavaScript code in a single-threaded model. However, Node.js can function as a multithreaded framework by utilizing the libuv C library to create hidden threads (see the event loop) which handle I/O operations, and network requests asynchronously. But, CPU-intensive tasks such as image or video processing can block the event loop and prevent subsequent requests from executing, increasing the application's latency.
