Node.js and Deno are both JavaScript runtimes, but they differ in security, performance, and developer experience. Node.js is the most widely used runtime, offering a huge package ecosystem (NPM), asynchronous programming support, and a strong community. Deno, created by the original Node.js developer, improves on security, modern module handling, and built-in TypeScript support.
If you need a stable ecosystem and vast third-party libraries, Node.js is the better choice. However, if security, TypeScript integration, and modern features are a priority, Deno offers a more secure, modern approach.
Key Takeaways:
Node.js → Best for enterprise apps, NPM package support, and compatibility.
Deno → Ideal for secure, TypeScript-first applications with built-in tools.
Deno has stricter security defaults, while Node.js has broader ecosystem support.
