DENO

Deno is a simple, modern and secure runtime for JavaScript and TypeScript that uses V8 and is built in Rust.

Comparison to Node.js

1. Deno does not use npm.

3. Deno requires explicit permissions for file, network, and environment access.

4. Deno always dies on uncaught errors.

5. Uses "ES Modules" and does not support require(). Third party modules are imported via URLs:
