So what is Deno?
Deno is JavaScript , typescript runtime like node.js but it can run typescript natively and has so many new features related to security and module delivery.

Although Deno is future proof but node has so much bigger community than any other platform and also if you find yourself stuck you can easily find solution.
Things that are changed with Deno.

- Importing modules is completely change and now you can import from url and file sitting on CDN
- No-Package Manager / No-Modules Folder. All the modules fetch from URL cache under Deno and you don’t need to worry about that
- Don’t worry about different setup for typescript it’s just works out of the box.
