What the Hell Is a Deno?
For me this is a case of &quot;too little, too late&quot;. I&#x27;ve been burned too much over the years by the Node ecosystem to risk investing any further interest in it now, even if it has marginally improved.<p>I have worked extensively with Typescript, which I consider to be the minimum viable solution within the Node ecosystem.  Typescript shouldn&#x27;t even be seen as a &#x27;nice-to-have. It should be seen as a required remedy for some of the mistakes of a terribly engineered language. Javascript should never have been considered a serious language for back-end development. Node.js to me seems like someone&#x27;s &#x27;Frankenstein&#x27;s monster&#x27;-esque experiment that escaped its captivity and wreaked wide-scale havoc on the surrounding world.
