Um... you can get the "reactor pattern" (I really hate SV rebranding of stuff that's existed forever by another name) with gen_event and gen_server in Erlang.

The pattern isn't special or strongly correlated to node.js
- gpderetta 11y agoNot sure how long is your 'forever', but FWIW, the name Reactor Pattern is at least as old as the ACE network library (which if not invented at least popularized it), i.e. circa 1995. That predates the open sourcing of Erlang by a few years. Also ACE didn't originate in SV.
