Deno example programs

This module contains small scripts that demonstrate use of Deno and its standard module.

You can run these examples using just their URL or install the example as an executable script which references the URL. (Think of installing as creating a bookmark to a program.)

deno  --allow-net https://deno.land/std/examples/echo_server.ts

Or

deno install --allow-net echo_server https://deno.land/std/examples/echo_server.ts

cat - print file to standard output

deno install --allow-read deno_cat https://deno.land/std/examples/cat.ts
