Deno JavaScript runtime

Deno is a modern, secure runtime for JavaScript, TypeScript, and WebAssembly, built on the V8 engine and the Rust programming language. It was conceived as a successor to Node.js by its original creator, Ryan Dahl, to address design flaws and improve security and developer productivity. Unlike traditional physical products, Deno is an open-source software project distributed globally via the internet.

While the software is developed by a global community of contributors, the project is spearheaded and managed by Deno Land Inc., a company founded to provide a stable commercial entity for the project's development. Deno Land Inc. provides managed services such as Deno Deploy, allowing the company to sustain the open-source ecosystem while offering enterprise-grade hosting solutions. The brand represents a shift towards modern web standards and a simplified, zero-configuration development experience.
