This is a fact. Import maps, fetch, ESM + web import semantics, localstorage, WebGPU, WHATWG streams, WebCrypto. Deno runs the shared web platform test suite: https://deno.co/wptfyi https://deno.co/wptfyi. You can also just look on MDN now and see which APIs are implemented in Deno compared to Node :-)

Is import maps considered an accepted proposal [1]? What's the point of implementing APIs like WebGPU and localstorage in a non-browser environment? I get WHATWG streams, esm, fetch and WebCrypro though. - 1: https://github.com/WICG/import-maps https://github.com/WICG/import-maps

  Local storage let's you save state across process restarts and session storage let's you share data across worker threads You could save the state of a discord bot across restarts for example.

  Implementing WebGPU allows you to make use of GPU resources on the server (from rendering to more compute focused) Localstorage is admittedly a bit niche, but works well as a way to bypass the need to get generic read/write permissions for the filesystem for a config file. (Deno implements a permission model similar to the web where you start with nothing and must request / have pre-granted access to resources like files/network/env/subprocess, and this access can be granular to specific files/directories/host+port combos)
