node js on ctrl c

When a Node.js process is terminated by pressing Ctrl + C, the following steps occur:

  1. The SIGINT signal is sent to the Node.js process by the terminal when Ctrl + C is pressed.
  2. Node.js receives the SIGINT signal and triggers the interruption handler, which is a default behavior in Node.js.
  3. The interruption handler in Node.js performs cleanup tasks such as closing open connections, releasing resources, and running any registered 'exit' event listeners.
  4. After the cleanup tasks are completed, the Node.js process exits, and the terminal prompt is restored for further interaction.

I hope this helps!
