## A secure TypeScript runtime built on V8

- very modern JavaScript.

Remote code is fetched and cached on first execution, and never updated until
the code is run with the `--reload` flag. (So, this will still work on an
airplane. See `~/.deno/src` for details on the cache.)
-* File system and network access can be controlled in order to run sandboxed
- code. Defaults to read-only file system access and no network access.
- Access between V8 (unprivileged) and Rust (privileged) is only done via
- serialized messages defined in this
- [flatbuffer](https://github.com/denoland/deno/blob/master/src/msg.fbs). This makes it
- easy to audit.
- To enable write access explicitly use `--allow-write` and `--allow-net` for
- network access.
