More FAQs in How Does Node.js Handle Asynchronous Operations?
Node.js uses non-blocking I/O, the Event Loop, libuv, and callback queues to execute asynchronous operations efficiently.
libuv manages the Event Loop, thread pool, asynchronous I/O operations, and many low-level runtime features.
No. Node.js delegates the operation and continues executing other code while waiting for completion.
