Understanding How `require` Works in CommonJS: A Deep Dive into Node.js Module Loading

Node.js is built on the CommonJS (CJS) module system, which enables developers to structure their applications using modules. This modularity is achieved through the `require` function, a key feature that allows one module to load and use functionality from another. But how does `require` actually work under the hood? In this blog, we’ll explore the mechanics of `require`, look into its internal implementation, and see how Node.js loads and manages modules efficiently.

Understanding the Go Runtime: A Deep Dive

When we talk about Go, or Golang, we often emphasize its simplicity, efficiency, and strong concurrency model. However, behind the scenes, much of this power stems from the **Go runtime**, a core component that handles critical tasks like memory management, concurrency, and garbage collection. Understanding the Go runtime is key to appreciating why Go is so well-suited for high-performance applications. In this blog, we’ll dive into what the Go runtime is, how it works, and why it’s crucial for Go developers to be aware of it.

Understanding Implicit and Explicit Coercion in JavaScript

In JavaScript, data often needs to be converted from one type to another—such as from a string to a number or from a boolean to a string. This process is called type coercion, and it can happen in two main ways: implicit and explicit coercion. While JavaScript tries to make things convenient with automatic type conversions, these can sometimes lead to unexpected behavior if you’re not careful. In this blog, we’ll explore implicit and explicit coercion in JavaScript, look at examples, and discuss when each approach is best suited.
