Node.js: What's Next?
summary
Roadmap items that matter: stabilization of async_hooks for tracing async lifecycles, a browser-aligned performance API with timerify and performance observers, experimental trace-events output viewable in Chrome, working HTTP/2 server support (push streams and sendfile) handling thousands of concurrent requests, ES modules via .mjs and loader hooks, native add-ons moving to N-API for ABI stability, a PR adding fs promises, a new low-level pull-style streams design to cut JS overhead, plus expanded diagnostics tools (node-report, 0x) and formalized CVE handling.
