Getting Started with Deno

This page summarizes the projects mentioned and recommended in the original post on dev.to

Our great sponsors
  • SurveyJS - Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • V8

    The official mirror of the V8 Git repository

  • Deno is a new JavaScript runtime built on V8.

  • deno

    A modern runtime for JavaScript and TypeScript.

  • Deno can be installed by copying the release from GitHub to a location on your path. I configured my environment as follows:

  • SurveyJS

    Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App. With SurveyJS form UI libraries, you can build and style forms in a fully-integrated drag & drop form builder, render them in your JS app, and store form submission data in any backend, inc. PHP, ASP.NET Core, and Node.js.

  • vscode_deno

    Visual Studio Code plugin for Deno

  • I recommend installing the Deno VS Code extension for IDE support and debugging. The manual suggested a launch config, which works for me, most of the time.

  • TypeScript-Website

    The Website and web infrastructure for learning TypeScript

  • The code above is also valid TypeScript. Since Deno includes a built-in TypeScript compiler, you could simply rename hello.js to hello.ts and it would work the same way.

  • parse5

    HTML parsing/serialization toolset for Node.js. WHATWG HTML Living Standard (aka HTML5)-compliant.

  • After some googling, I landed on parse5 which appeared to have wide usage and offered a simple, low-level tree API at its core.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
