On: Fresh is a new full stack web framework for Deno

[ArrayBoundCheck]

I don't know what deno is and it appears that I'm the only one. Does this mean it's not for me? Would I want deno on my tiny 1 visit per hour website?

Maybe/maybe not? Deno is a new-er runtime for JavaScript and TypeScript by the creator of Node.js. It's essentially an effort to correct the perceived shortcomings of Node.js with a new runtime that is: 1. compatible with TypeScript, 2. aligns closer with browser APIs, and 3. comes with a standard library modeled after Go's.

It would be great for a 1 visit per hour site, but so would PHP, or just an index.html file. Hard to really answer that question without knowing what your site is.

I keep hearing and reading about Deno too but I don't understand why I or my project would need or want it or consider switching to it. What does it give me, how is it better, why is it better. I'm confused on why I would pay for hosting? You're not alone.

If you keep reading about it and still haven't been able to answer those questions, chances are you probably don't need it.

The strengths of Deno over Node are bulleted all over its homepage, but you likely already knew that.
