Summary

Node.js, the open-source cross-platform JavaScript runtime, has returned to GitHub Trending as its release cycle continues with Current (v22.x) and LTS lines like Hydrogen (Node.js 18). The project follows an open governance model under the OpenJS Foundation, with even-numbered major versions becoming LTS releases receiving 12 months of Active LTS support plus 18 months of Maintenance. Nightly builds are produced every 24 hours from the Current branch, and all releases follow semantic versioning with PGP-signed checksums for binary verification.
