process.exit() can be used to stop, halt, exit the execution of a Node.js script. In this example, Hello will be printed, the script will be exited, meaning World will not be printed.
console.log("Hello")
process.exit()
console.log("World")
You can also declare the exit code, such as 0 (OK) or 1 (Fault).
console.log("Hello")
process.exit(0)
console.log("World")
