# Node.js: API changes and deadlines

Markdown version of <https://harbyn.com/vendors/nodejs>.

Developer tools. 2 upcoming deadlines, 2 recorded changes. Every entry cites the Node.js page we read it from.

## What we read

The Node.js pages and feeds our ingestion visits, politely and on a schedule.

- **Deprecations**: <https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nodejs/Release/main/schedule.json>

## What the scanner looks for

How `harbyn scan` recognises Node.js in a repository, on your machine. Nothing leaves it.

The scanner matches this vendor through the identifiers each change names.
