Node.js Translation to Spanish - 1074 words (Part 32)

Hello, after a while, this is my new open source contribution for Utopian and DaVinci as translator. I have been translating different Node.js Files during the past few months. This time, I started translating "process.md" file, because I want to learn more about these concepts by Node.js developers point of view.

I work with an extensive team of translators team whose performance has been excellent. By this time a 37% of this huge project has been translated in a few months. I must say that I'm very excited about that.

I invite you to read this post because it is a knowledge font that provides tools for the people who are working with Node.js or any other open source project development. I hope this contribution is useful.

It looks difficult to understand at first, but let me explain it with the next example.

Imagine that you have been developing a new android app that uses the APIs from Google Maps and Twitter. When testing the app, you realize that both APIs are written in different languages and you must change one of them to make it work, but that's a lot of work and goes against the reasons to use an API. Node.js is the solution to problems like this because it allows the union between different programming languages without affecting its performance.

I decided to translate this project because I'm an engineering student and innovation is my passion; I love creating solutions to problems like this. Also, I like sharing information and a way to do it is translating the content of a big project like this so people around the world can access to it and share it too.

Translating Node.js project is very interesting because there are a lot of concepts different between them, but closely related; for example, my latest translations were about the 9th version of change log files, which is a very particular kind of file; nonetheless, this new contribution is about "process". Process object is "a global that provides information about, and control over, the current Node.js process. As a global, it is always available to Node.js applications without using require()." This object is very important because allows control over the process that is running; this improves the Node.js performance.

As an object, it has a lot of events that give it instructions that must follow. For example, there is 'beforeExit' event that "is emitted when Node.js empties its event loop and has no additional work to schedule. Normally, the Node.js process will exit when there is no work scheduled, but a listener registered on the 'beforeExit' event can make asynchronous calls, and thereby cause the Node.js process to continue.". It looks simple, but the fact that this event allows Node.js to make asynchronous calls is very useful for this kind of process.

The original language of this change log is English and it was translated into Spanish, which is my native language. I have experience translating in projects like Loopring wallet and Yapbam. These projects make me grow and learn a lot about open source projects.

You can visit my profile (navx) on Crowdin's website to find proof of authorship. Also, you can visit the Activity tab in the Node.js project and filter my contributions between December 5th and December 7th, which were the dates of the translation and the corrections respectively.
