Everything I know about Deno - entbit. by Niklas Metje
A comprehensive guide ready for Deno 2.0, the modern JavaScript runtime. Learn about Deno's features, APIs, and tools, and get ready to start building you…
In this chapter, we dive deep into Deno's powerful CLI capabilities and security features, exploring:
- Deno's robust permission model, offering granular control over application access
- Efficient use of environment variables, including .env file handling
- Advanced command-line argument parsing
- User interaction techniques
- Accessing host system information through Deno's APIs
Deno proves to be an excellent tool for CLI interactions and for building CLI applications. With the help of numerous helper functions and modules from the std
library, creating secure and interactive CLI tools becomes a breeze.
I hope you have fun reading the new chapter and I wish you an awesome week ahead!
Thanks for reading, Niklas
P.S.: I'll now try to get some slides ready about DNS for web developers for a JavaScript meeting tomorrow. DNS always feels so complicated when in fact most of the DNS record types can be easily understood with an appropriate example. As a tip check out Julia Evans' mess with dns.
