Nodejs and socket.io, is it pure javascript?

Question

I\'m starting to use nodejs and socket.io...

Is it pure javascript or do i have to learn a framework like JQuery or MOntools ?

Thank you!

jQuery, MooTools and Node.js are all "pure" Javascript if that's what you're asking. However, all of them are also libraries, and you will indeed have to learn their API.

You can find documentation for Node.js here.
