Tell me more...
Deno is a JavaScript/TypeScript runtime with secure defaults and a great developer experience.

This book will introduce Deno’s primitives, its principles, and how developers can use it to build real-world applications.
After getting the reader comfortable with Deno and why it was created, we will start experimenting with Deno, exploring the toolchain, and writing simple scripts and CLI applications.


As we transition in the second section of the book, the reader will start with a very simple web application and will slowly add more features to it.
Throughout the book, this application will evolve from a simple "hello world" API to a web application connected to the database, with users, authentication, and a JavaScript client.


By the end of it, the reader will be comfortable using Deno to build real-world applications.
