Deno is a secure, modern JavaScript and TypeScript runtime. It is created by the same developer who created Node.js, Ryan Dahl. Deno is built on the same V8 JavaScript engine as Node.js, but it provides an improved security model, better performance, and a more robust standard library. Deno also supports TypeScript, allowing developers to write their code in a type-safe language, which can then be compiled down to JavaScript for execution. Deno is designed to be a lightweight, secure, and efficient way to develop web applications.

Node.js Compatibility in Deno
Deno aims to provide Node.js compatibility to make migration smoother and easier. While Deno can run apps and libraries offered for Node.js, not all are supported yet. There are trade-offs to consider, such as incompatible APIs and a less ideal developer experience. Deno is working on improving compatibility and the transition process. Efforts include porting Node.js modules, exploring a superset approach, and transparent package installation from npm.
