Deno is a free and open source Javascript and Typescript runtime environment just like Node.js and from the same Node creator Ryan Dahl for Linux, macOS and Windows. It is released under MIT license and based on Rust, Tokio and V8 JavaScript engine. Some of the important features are remote script execution, No file, network, or environment access by default, standard module, browser support, WebAssembly support and built-in tooling support. The best thing is you don’t need any dependency on package managers or package registries.
