As a bit of an aside, I've gotten back into deno after seeing bun get bought out by an AI company.

I really like it. Startup times are now better than node (if not as good as bun). And being able to put your whole "project" in a single file that grabs dependencies from URLs reduces friction a surprising amount compared to having to have a whole directory with package.json, package-lock.json, etc.

It's basically my "need to whip up a small thing" environment of choice now.
