Why is Node.js preferred over other backend technologies like Java and PHP?

Some of the reasons why Node.js is preferred include:

• Node.js is very fast
• Node Package Manager has over 50,000 bundles available at the developer’s disposal
• Perfect for data-intensive, real-time web applications, as Node.js never waits for an API to return data
• Better synchronization of code between server and client due to same code base
• Easy for web developers to start using Node.js in their projects as it is a JavaScript library
