Signals Handling
The process.on('SIGINT', ...)
event allows developers to handle the interruption signal (e.g., Ctrl+C) gracefully. By registering a listener for this event, developers can perform cleanup tasks or prompt the user before terminating the NodeJS process.
process.on('uncaughtException', (error) => {
console.error('Uncaught exception:', error);
process.exit(1); // Terminate the process with an error status code
});
