**Title:** DENO! what you will replace node.js with

**Facilitator:** Robert MacLean

What if we could re-write node.js from scratch, knowing what it would become? Fix the annoying parts? Increase performance? Improve stability? Add a dinosaur mascot?

Deno does all this! From the creator of Node.js! This is a drop-in replacement for Node.js which will make your life so much happier as a developer. So come along for this talk on why this is the future.
