I think it’s more for Python libraries that depend on JavaScript. Lots of packages rely on other languages and runtimes. For example, tabula-py[1] depends on Java. So if my-package requires a JS runtime, it can add this deno package as its own dependency. The benefit is consumers only need to specify my-package as a dependency, and the deno runtime will be fetched for free as a transient dependency. This avoids every consumer needing to manage their own JavaScript runtime/environment. | ||
