Yes, Node.js's `fs` module handles different line endings automatically. The `utf8` encoding handles both Unix-style line endings ( ) and Windows-style line endings ( ). If you are dealing with files using a different line ending convention (e.g., Mac OS line endings), you might need to use a different encoding or normalize the line endings before parsing. However, for most common CSV files, `utf8` should suffice.
