For those unfamiliar with it, Deno is a new project by Node's original creator R. Dahl. While Node has grown in use and size, there are underlying issues that are very hard to address without a massive overhaul, and to turn those issues around, Node → Deno was born.
The core features Deno promises to bring are sandboxing out-of-the-box, built in Typescript support, standard modules, etc. Personally, I haven't tried Deno out, but I'm very much looking forward to it. Anyone who's ever built a production application with Node will be familiar with its shortcomings. There are of course community-driven solutions to overcome many of them, but they are still bandaids over underlying issues. Hopefully Deno can address at least some of them.
The official webpage [1] offers some API examples and relevant information as well.
