## What it is
An archived repository preserving the working code from the 2015 convergence of io.js and Joyent's Node.js under the Node.js Foundation, prior to the 3.0.0 release. It is a historical snapshot, not active software.

## Use cases
- study the history of the node.js and io.js merger
- research how the node.js foundation governance formed
- trace pre-3.0.0 node.js source code
- find historical commits from the io.js fork era

## When to choose
- you need the exact pre-convergence source of node/io.js for historical or research purposes

## When to avoid
- you want to run or contribute to modern Node.js - use nodejs/node instead
- you need a maintained runtime or library

## Facets
- artifact type: application
- maturity: abandoned
- function: developer-tools, version-control
- domain: developer-tools, version-control
- platform: -
- tags: nodejs, iojs, archive, historical, convergence, javascript
