Another simple explanation is: JavaScript is a programming language. Node.js is a runtime environment (basically a program where you run your code) that uses JavaScript. Because of Node.js, JavaScript can now be used to make computer programs on a computer. Before Node.js, JavaScript is only run in browsers.

JavaScript is a programming language, which runs in web browsers. Whereas Node.js is an interpreter or running environment for JavaScript which holds a lot of requiring libraries and all.  More on these links : https://www.educba.com/javascript-vs-node-js/ https://www.quora.com/What-is-the-difference-between-JavaScript-and-Node-js Thanks
