In this episode of The Future of Node series recorded at Node Interactive 2016 Adam talked with Mikeal Rogers about the backstory of Node over the past few years to get to where we are today. We talked about io.js (the fork of Node), what’s happened in the community and the code since that time frame, how The Node.js Foundation has helped to solidify the foundation on which the Node ecosystem is being built on, initiatives and focuses in the near future, and more.

- Node.js API (NAPI) - Node with PoC ABI stable API for native modules. The goal of this project is to provide a stable Node API for native module developers. NAPI aims to provide ABI compatibility guarantees across different Node versions and also across different Node VMs – allowing NAPI enabled native modules to just work across different versions and flavors of Node.js without recompilations.
