In plain words

BigPipe is a modular web pattern built for Node.js developers. It enables the creation of web applications using a modular architecture, breaking down pages into smaller, manageable components. The pattern is designed for developers who want to organize their Node.js projects with improved modularity and scalability. BigPipe simplifies the development process by providing a structured approach to building web applications.
