Node JS v15.0.0

Node js just (at the time of writing this) released v15.0.0. Release notes here.

One big thing: a feature to throw on unhandled rejections, see nodejs#33021.

Welp. That’s cool. Reminded me, though, that on versions before v15, you need to manually implement this behavior, to prevent hanging broken server from unhandled rejection.

This is the snippet:

process.on('unhandledRejection', (err) => {
  console.error(err.stack);
  process.exit(1);
});

Okay, done. Keep using this snippet until v15+ is the equivalent of what is v10 right now.
