I've now done two small web services in Deno, both are in production serving very small amounts of requests (i.e. tens per week scale).

The thing that attracted me to Deno is that it promises to be a more integrated Typescript experience on the backend while still leveraging a lot of value from the Node ecosystem. I've already forced my coworkers to use Typescript, so having better integrated tooling is just a big plus.

That's when compared to Node.JS. When compared to other frameworks, I'll just say it's nice that all developers on my teams know Typescript, so they can all contribute when necessary. In absolute terms, I think Node.JS is the dumbest thing to ever happen in IT history, and I hope something like that never happens again. That Deno puts a small bandaid over that open wound in my heart is nice.
