Recently, while using a linter, I discovered that the names of some built-in packages where prepended with node:
. I searched a lot but I didn't get any useful info. What is this node:module
syntax?
Core modules can also be identified using the node: prefix, in which case it bypasses the require cache. For instance, require('node:http') will always return the built in HTTP module, even if there is require.cache entry by that name.
