* **ECMAScript**: A standard for scripting languages, including **JavaScript**.
* **EOF**: [End-of-File][] - Indicates the end of a file or stream.
* **EOL**: [End-of-Life][] (when used within project documents), [End-of-Line][] (when used within a program),
  End-of-Life is usually how this term is used.
* **ESM**: [ECMAScript Module][] - The implementation of the **ECMA-262** module system.
* **ETW**: [Event Tracing for Windows][] - Provides a way to trace events in Windows systems.
* **FFDC**: First Failure Data Capture - Logs, traces, and dumps produced by default on program error.
* **FIPS**: [Federal Information Processing Standards][] - Set of standards for use in computer systems by non-military
  government agencies and government contractors.
* **FS**: File System.
* **Godbolt**: [Compiler Explorer][] - Tool for running compilers interactively from a web browser.

* **IDE**: [Integrated Development Environment][] - A software application that provides comprehensive facilities to
  computer programmers for software development.
* **IETF**: [Internet Engineering Task Force][] - An international community responsible for developing and promoting
  Internet standards.

* **JS**: [JavaScript][] - A high-level, interpreted programming language that conforms to the **ECMAScript**
  specification.
* **JS/C++ boundary**: Boundary between V8's runtime and JS code execution, often crossed when calling JS functions
  with C++ linkage.
* **JSON**: [JavaScript Object Notation][] - A lightweight data-interchange format that is easy for humans to read and
  write and for machines to parse and generate. It is commonly used for transmitting data between a server and a
  web application.
* **LE**: Little [Endian][] - A Byte Order where the smallest bit comes first. The opposite of **BE**.

  separates the application into three interconnected components: the model (data), the view (presentation), and the
  controller (logic).
* **Native modules/addons**: Modules compiled to native code from a non-JavaScript language,
  such as C or C++, that expose interfaces callable from JavaScript.
* **npm**: [npm][] - A package manager and registry widely used for managing dependencies in
  Node.js projects and for sharing code with others.
* **OOB**: Out Of Bounds - Used in the context of array access.
* **OOM**: Out Of Memory - Situation where a computer program exceeds its memory allocation.
* **OOP**: [Object-Oriented Programming][] - A programming paradigm based on the concept of "objects," which can
  contain data and code to manipulate that data. OOP languages include features such as encapsulation, inheritance,
  and polymorphism.
