At PTI WebTech, your leader in mobile app development and solutions, staying ahead of technology trends is both a requirement and in our DNA. With the recent launch of Node.js 24 on May 6, 2025 and official new "Current" Node.js runtime release, developers and enterprises will see a secured, faster and capabilities-rich runtime run in developments. Being Centre for Excellence experts in android app development, custom web apps and backend services, we are excited about diving into the details of Node.js 24 and what it means in the modern application development landscape.
What is Node.js 24?
Node.js 24 is the latest release of Node.js runtime, which is now the Current release milestone for the runtime. This recent release means developers get to benefit from improved JavaScript support, increased performance, and a more secure development environment. Node.js 24 includes V8 engine 13.6, npm 11 and other meaningful improvements such as a stable permission model and new enhancements to AsyncLocalStorage.
At PTI WebTech, we are already utilizing Node.js 24 to provide highly effective solutions to use in mobile app development frameworks to ensure our clients derive the most scalable and high performance applications they can.
What’s New in Node.js 24: Game-Changing Enhancements?
V8 Engine Upgrade (v13.6)
Node.js 24 introduces the upgraded V8 engine (v13.6), which enhances performance and compatibility with modern JavaScript. Features like Float16Array improve memory efficiency, while RegExp.escape, WebAssembly Memory64, and Error.isError make backend operations faster and more reliable—helping PTI WebTech build smoother and smarter real-time mobile and web apps.
npm 11: Fast, Secure, and Smarter
With npm 11, Node.js 24 offers faster installations, smarter dependency handling, and more efficient security audits. This helps PTI WebTech speed up the development process and deliver stable, well-maintained Android apps with fewer issues and quicker turnaround times.
Stable Permission Model
The permission model is now stable, allowing control over file system, environment, and network access using flags like --allow-fs-read. PTI WebTech uses this to build secure apps where each module only accesses what's necessary, ensuring stronger data protection in mobile solutions.
Enhanced AsyncLocalStorage with AsyncContextFrame
This upgrade improves the way state is managed across asynchronous operations, making apps more efficient and consistent. PTI WebTech uses this to develop real-time apps like messaging platforms and data-heavy services that require stable async flows.
Global URLPattern API
URLPattern is now globally available, making it easier to match and manage URLs without extra imports. PTI WebTech leverages this to simplify route handling and build cleaner, scalable backend logic in serverless and microservice-based mobile app architectures.
Improved Test Runner
The built-in test runner in Node.js 24 now better handles asynchronous tests by automatically waiting for subtests to finish. This ensures more stable testing environments, helping PTI WebTech maintain high-quality standards across projects and reduce bugs before deployment.
Undici 7 HTTP Client
Node.js 24 includes Undici 7, a faster and more efficient HTTP client with native fetch and HTTP/2 support. PTI WebTech uses it to build apps that depend on fast, reliable API communication, especially for data-driven or integration-heavy mobile and web applications.
