Deno
The open-source JavaScript runtime for the modern web

Deno is an open-source JavaScript and TypeScript runtime built on web standards, designed as a modern alternative to Node.js. It includes built-in tooling such as a linter, formatter, test runner, and TypeScript support with zero configuration. Deno emphasizes security by restricting file, network, and environment access by default unless explicitly granted.
Deno runs TypeScript and JavaScript files directly with built-in tools, enforces permission-based security, and supports npm packages and web standard APIs out of the box.
