Hi, Recently i have started coding in C to interact with REDIS and found out the old love to work with C, however i came a long way from java to nodeJS and wanted to learn it again for fun & actual work (like developer a library like REDIS in C). I have few questions. 1. Where to start, since i know basic C, are there any frameworks established. 2. Network programming or i should say HTTP programming, how to do that. 3. How to delivery the softwares like EXE on windows , or jar in java means how the ecosystem works.

i hope there will be enough experienced programmers to guide me through the tunnel.

I am not quite sure what your question is.

Is it what you need to do to write native extensions for Node.js? In that case https://nodejs.org/api/addons.html might get you started. Would there be a particular reason for a C implementation though?

We are already using that. however the intention is just to familiarize myself with the C ecosystem like build systems, frameworks, database integrations, web application frameworks (if there any), exactly like java has maven,spring,tomcat,jboss etc.
