Deno is a secure by default, open source runtime for JavaScript and TypeScript, providing a productive and secure scripting environment for the modern programmer. It is distributed as a single executable with no dependencies, and takes on the role of both runtime and package manager. It uses a standard browser-compatible protocol for loading modules, which are URLs.

Built on top of V8, Rust and TypeScript, Deno has support for TypeScript right out of the box. It has a set of built-in utilities as well as reviewed (audited) standard modules.
