Deno: Standard Libraries Overview

Deno comes with a set of standard libraries to help developers and make their lives easier. I felt it is inspired by languages like Go and Python. Despite being pretty young Deno's standard library is pretty extensive. These libraries are Deno-approved and don’t have any other external dependencies.

List of Deno’s standard libraries:

archive tar archive utilities
async async utilities
bytes helpers to manipulate bytes slices
datetime date/time parsing
encoding encoding/decoding for various formats
flags parse command-line flags
fmt formatting and printing
fs file system API
hash crypto lib
http HTTP server
io I/O lib
log logging utilities
mime support for multipart data
node Node.js compatibility layer
path path manipulation
ws websockets

In the upcoming blog posts, we will dig deeper into these standard libraries. We will use some of the core libraries and see how they help developers to build apps faster and easier.

Thanks for reading. If you have some feedback, please reach out to me on Twitter or Github.

Setting up Nginx as a reverse proxy for Node.js App
