The concept of Deno was first introduced in 2018, followed by an intensive development phase that lasted approximately two years. The first official release of Deno, version 1.0.0, occurred on May 13, 2020. Although this initial release contained many bugs, it demonstrated the effectiveness and functionality of the platform.
Following the successful launch, Deno adopted a regular release schedule, issuing both major and minor updates on a predetermined timetable. This iterative approach enabled Deno to evolve and improve over time, addressing issues and enhancing its capabilities with each successive release. This consistent development and release pattern have contributed to Deno's growth and maturation as a robust and reliable platform.
The development of Deno continues at a steady and deliberate pace, with a focus on sustainability and reliability. The Deno repository on GitHub remains highly active, with frequent updates and contributions from the development team on a nearly daily basis. This consistent activity demonstrates the team's dedication to the project's ongoing advancement. The development team is committed to a meticulous and thoughtful approach to enhancements and releases, ensuring a steady and incremental evolution of Deno's capabilities. This approach prioritizes stability and quality, reflecting the team's dedication to maintaining a high standard of excellence in the project's development.
Since its initial launch, Deno has undergone 45 significant updates, accompanied by numerous smaller revisions. Currently, Deno operates within the 1.x release framework. As of July 2024, discussions are underway regarding the upcoming release of Deno 2.0, expected later in the year.
A comprehensive record of all releases can be found on the dedicated GitHub page: https://github.com/denoland/deno/releases/. These releases, denoted by version numbers such as 1.1.0, 1.2.0, 1.3.0, 1.36.0, and 1.45.0, are issued approximately monthly.
