I accidentally deployed my personal site on deno 1.3 when testing it on Architect Serverless (I use TypeScript in the front end and wanted to have a go at using TS on the backend via Architect's deno support - https://arc.codes/reference/arc-config/runtime, then forgot to change the runtime back to node before deploying).
Deno works really well. There's not much to think about if you know node.
This new release has top level await too:
> Top level await support: you can now just await promises in the REPL without having to wrap your call in an async IIFE.
I guess the biggest complaint after it was released was the lack of a packet manager. Not sure if that situation changed. However there was quite some buzz around it, here as well.
I think not having a package manager was pretty intentional and unlikely to change. I personally like the new import from url functionality, especially when combined with the ability to alias some of those away.
