How does Go’s performance compare to Node.js for building APIs?
<div>Go is faster because it’s a compiled language with built-in support for concurrency, making it ideal for performance-critical APIs.</div>

Node.js is also fast, particularly for I/O-bound operations, but it struggles with CPU-intensive tasks compared to Go.

If your API needs to handle many simultaneous connections, Go’s goroutines provide a more efficient and scalable solution than Node.js’s event loop.

Node.js has a larger ecosystem for web development and can be quicker to develop with, but Go is better suited for high-performance, high-scale applications.

Both are great choices for building APIs, but Go has a slight edge in terms of raw speed and handling high concurrency with minimal overhead.
