Setting up JavaScript projects is no fun. Getting started involves installing and configuring node, tsc, prettier, eslint, a testing framework, a database driver, and more. Why is JavaScript not batteries included? In this talk, we'll talk about how Deno fixes this, letting you focus on building stuff. We explore what benefits full tooling integration unlocks and remember how fun it is to program if your tools help you rather than requiring your babysitting.
