Deno - First App

I have a linus laptop.

curl -fsSL https://deno.land/x/install/install.sh | sh

Ran Successfully with the following output

Deno was installed successfully to /home/name/.deno/bin/deno
Manually add the directory to your $HOME/.bash_profile (or similar)
  export DENO_INSTALL="/home/name/.deno"
  export PATH="$DENO_INSTALL/bin:$PATH"
Run '/home/averageonion/.deno/bin/deno --help' to get started

Edited the ~/.bashrc as mentioned and compiled it using the source ~/.bashrc. Now the the deno --version works 🥳

deno --version
deno 1.4.0
v8 8.7.75
typescript 4.0.2

Installed the deno vscode extention to aid my lazy bum by clicking ctrl+p in vscode and entering ext install denoland.vscode-deno

I entered the following in my terminal and I gotta say I was pretty implressed 💃

$ deno run https://deno.land/std@0.69.0/examples/welcome.ts
Download https://deno.land/std@0.69.0/examples/welcome.ts

Welcome to Deno 🦕

Well that was kinda quick unlike the npm i node-stuff 🍻

And now the Hello World program compiled with deno 🦕

/**

 */
function capitalize(word: string): string {
  return word.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + word.toLowerCase().slice(1);
}

function hello(name: string): string {
  return "Hello " + capitalize(name);
}

console.log(hello("sTEFFIN"));
/**
 * Output:
 *
 * Hello Steffin
**/

That's all for today I suppose 🧐
