>Deno has a set of reviewed (audited) standard modules that are guaranteed to work: deno.land/std

This is such a great idea.

Is a comprehensive std a goal for Deno? In the future, can I replace Python and make a 10 line script to download a gzipped csv and parse it incrementally?

[lucacasonato → aitchnyu]

Yes! We have a CSV parser in the standard lib, and HTTP requests that are gzipped are automatically decompressed if they specify the `transfer-encoding: gzip` header.
