Oh! I stand corrected. That's a wrapper for TSC, though, right?

Edit to add: I see, Deno embeds TSC as a library and tries to straighten out the mess of tsconfig. That must be a leaky abstraction, which makes me wary, but maybe it works well in practice.

"embeds TSC as a library" understates the integration:

Deno makes certain tradeoffs that make it feel seamless

I'm now intrigued and might try it out. I like TypeScript but dislike TSC.
