How exciting. It's good to see IBM putting code on Github. I was aware that IBM were porting libuv so it was no suprise to see them working on V8 on the road to Node.

A z/OS port of V8 sure makes porting code that depends on it a hell of a lot easier, for example - MongoDB.

I've seen some questions in IBM-MAIN (and elsewhere) about availability of
Node.js for z/OS. The latest version of Node.js is just starting to emerge
on z/OS, and that's great news of course. For the latest information (as of
July 14, 2016, at least), please take a look at Michael Dawson's article
here:

If you're wondering what Node.js is, this Wikipedia article explains the
basics:

Node.js was introduced some time ago for Linux on z and LinuxONE and (of
course) continues to be updated and enhanced. IBM's builds are available
for download here:
