Node is great for automation in tooling, but definitely has its quirks. It's great for APIs if you outputting JSON, but it's still your worst choice for RDBMS databases. Golang also dealing with asynchronous code much better. Even with async/await, still not easy to manage async code, never will. I don't have experience with Java, C#, etc., but seriously, just look at goroutines, why other languages f*cking with us when we have to write asynchronous code!? And you will have to write async code in Node.js, a lot. And you will screw it up, just like anyone else.
My favourite one when a well known package author gave me a "solution" for executing it's function asynchronously and taking screenshots to files one by one. His promise example didn't worked. Then I thinkered a little bit and rewrote it with async/await. Of course, his answer was, he just gave me "directions" how to write such code, his example not meant to work... :)
Even the goddamn package authors (which package using promises under the hood) don't know how to write asynchronous code properly in Node.js. I don't know, too. It's a mess. Save yourself some seizures and look at another languages as well.
Modern re-thought languages like the Golang takes away this problem from you.

We're a place where coders share, stay up-to-date and grow their careers.
