process

process is a global; node:process and elide:process return the same object. It follows Node’s process.

Differences from Node

• process.resourceUsage is not available.
• process.send and process.disconnect exist only in a child started with child_process.fork().
• Replacing process.stdout.write also intercepts console.log.
• process.nextTick callbacks run before Promise and queueMicrotask callbacks; see Timers.

For process.env loading and subprocess behavior, see Environment Variables.
