Hi there, thanks for your response.

I programmed some Desktop Apps with Java and C#. And during some hackathons i used python+flask+nginx to implement a Web-Applications with a RestAPI on the backend.

I was just curious for which type of application i can use node.js (since i didn't use javascript on the backend at all). Usually i used PHP, C# or Pyhton for the backend..

Is MS Windows 10 using node.js for their applications (since its possible to develop Node.js apps in Visual Studio Code)?

Or is it for pure web applications?Thanks a lot for your inputs.edit: started yesterday with...
