Node.js Modules

We split our code into different files to maintain, organize and reuse code whenever possible. A module system allows us to split and include code and import code written by other developers whenever required. In simple terms, a module is nothing but a JavaScript file. Node.js has many built-in modules that are part of the platform and comes with Node.js installation, for example, HTTP, fs, path, and more.
