Almost all major programming languages supports them, and Node.js is no exception. It's actually more simple in Node because Node lets us reuse our existing learning of timers. In this post, I will describe and demonstrate what timers are, how to use them, what the syntax looks like, and then how you can leverage them in your applications.

If you are interested in knowing more about Node, you can also check my other articles as well.

If you are using setInterval, you can use clearInterval function to cancel that as well.
