    The --self-extracting flag in deno compile --self-extracting looks awesome.

    I could compile my 11ty stack into a single executable that I could send anywhere, but it would still be able to read external markdowns so semi-technical coworkers can make content changes without the maintenance overhead of a CMS and without the coworkers needing to learn modern web dev.

    It would also be super awesome for all the internal tools I’ve built that need to run offline.

      11ty = Eleventy? Are you familiar with Hugo? Do you have an opinion or experience between the two systems?

      I’m somewhat dissatisfied with Hugo, which I have used for many years, but whenever I checked alternatives, nothing really spoke to me as a clear improvement worth the learning barrier and migration investment If I can use deno, a js static site generator could be viable too - something I traditionally avoided 🤔

    Deno is great. The best way to write web site and static sites IMO. I really hope they survive.
