I often use Deno for my small automation scripts / local tools.
I like that I can use TypeScript based on the V8 JavaScript engine and modules without using third-party tools like Babel. It also comes with its own bundler and tester. No more npm install whatever --save-dev. Deno handles packages by itself just from code. Deno gives me free hands when I want to write a small script without any configuration and that's why I personally like it. I also like its permission policy.

I am not sure if deno's native can minify yet?
Do you have some tutorial for creating modules with Deno?
