What I was trying to get at is that whether you have to work with JSX or whatever, that doesn't really have much correlation with Deno per se. CRA/Next/Remix give you decent JSX setups out of the box too (for scopes where JSX is actually justifiable), and so on for all the popular framework flavors, so it kinda doesn't do Deno any justice to say what amounts to "hey look, it can do the most basic of things when you pull in a bunch of libs".

If the point of the article was to highlight a super simple, no-fuss edge computing deployment thing, maybe it would have been better to lead with that? Because if you lead w/ "A whole static website in a single JS file", then let's not blame me for pointing out that that's a relatively trivial task to accomplish with other technologies.

Yes, you are certainly not alone on that. The headline could be made better. Focus should be more on the composability and tooling side of things.
