We’ll Call It a Draw
The Black Knight (Node.js) and King Arthur (Deno) face off. Node has npm — the largest package registry in the world. Deno has ESM-native modules, a permissions system, and no node_modules directory.
They fight. Both claim victory.
“We’ll call it a draw.”
Lykn’s compiled output runs on both. But the book’s toolchain is Deno. The reader has been using it since Chapter 1.
“It’s just a strong recommendation.”
