## Project Details

> Node.js is an open-source, cross-platform JavaScript run-time environment that executes JavaScript code outside of a browser.

**Node.js** came into existence when the original developers of *JavaScript* extended it from something you could only run in the browser to something you could run on your machine as a standalone application.

In simple words, it's an open source execution environment for developing web applications, which is event-based, it uses the V8 engine to provide an execution environment that compiles and executes JavaScript at a higher speed. It is possible to run Node.js without any restriction on *Windows*, *Linux* and *Mac OS X*.

It should be noted that it is NOT a server language, this means that it executes code, so it could be understood as an interpreter.

## Contribution Specifications

 Node.js is currently being translated into 33 languages. I'm contributing to translate it into the Spanish language.

## Translation Overview

For this occasion I translated two folders: [Backporting-To-Release-Lines.md](https://crowdin.com/translate/nodejs/149/en-es) and [Blocking-Vs-Non-Blocking.md](https://crowdin.com/translate/nodejs/85/en-es#27356)

As the name implies, this module explains in an easy way how to backport* a pull request, what needs to be backported, what can be backported and how to submit a backport pull request.

<center>*A backport is the action of making modifications to an old version of a software with contributions or patches originated in later versions.</center>

This overview covers the difference between blocking and non-blocking calls in Node.js. This summary refers to the event loop and to libuv, but fortunately no prior knowledge of those topics is required. 

Fortunately, too, the comparison is simple:

Blocking: operation are said to have blocking behavior if it waits for some event to get complete. For example: if a lock is not available a thread may enter a wait state on event till lock is available. Such an operation is said to be blocking.

Non-blocking: Non blocking behavior is like checking the condition at that instance. For example- in case of locks if it is not available it will not wait till it is available like blocking operation. Also we need to repeatedly check the availability of locks as there will be no callback like asynchronous calls.

As an example of the work done, I will use part of the section **Concurrency and Throughput** belonging to the [Blocking-Vs-Non-Blocking.md](https://crowdin.com/translate/nodejs/85/en-es#27356) module:

### Concurrency and Throughput

<div class="text-justify">

JavaScript execution in Node.js is single threaded, so concurrency refers to the event loop's capacity to execute JavaScript callback functions after completing other work. Any code that is expected to run in a concurrent manner must allow the event loop to continue running as non-JavaScript operations, like I/O, are occurring.

As an example, let's consider a case where each request to a web server takes 50ms to complete and 45ms of that 50ms is database I/O that can be done asynchronously. Choosing non-blocking asynchronous operations frees up that 45ms per request to handle other requests. This is a significant difference in capacity just by choosing to use non-blocking methods instead of blocking methods.

The event loop is different than models in many other languages where additional threads may be created to handle concurrent work.

### Concurrencia y Rendimiento

<div class="text-justify">

La ejecución de JavaScript en Node.js es de un solo hilo, por lo que la concurrencia se refiere a la capacidad del bucle de eventos para ejecutar las funciones de callback de JavaScript después de completar otro trabajo. Cualquier código que se espera que se ejecute de manera concurrente debe permitir que el bucle de eventos continúe ejecutándose a medida que se produzcan las operaciones que no son de JavaScript, como I/O.

Como ejemplo, consideremos un caso en el que cada solicitud a un servidor web tarda 50ms en completarse y 45ms de esos 50ms es el I/O de la base de datos que se puede realizar de forma asíncrona. La elección de operaciones asíncronas no bloqueantes libera esos 45ms por solicitud para manejar otras solicitudes. Esta es una diferencia significativa en la capacidad simplemente al elegir utilizar métodos de no bloqueo en lugar de métodos de bloqueo.

El bucle de eventos es diferente a los modelos en muchos otros idiomas en los cuales se pueden crear subprocesos adicionales para manejar el trabajo simultáneo.

This counter includes non-translatable words, so it is necessary to work on more content to extract an average of 1000 translatable words.
