hey HN, i'm Andy, part of the Deno team. we're really excited to get a release candidate out there for what will soon become 2. it's been a long road to get here and we're really just beginning. happy to answer any questions!

Hi Andy! Deno basically restored my hope in being able to understand (T|J)S tooling, thanks for working on this amazing project.

2 questions:

Support for TS in notebooks in VSCode(ium) is currently broken; are there plans for resolving issues with definitions used across different cells?

Future plans for bundler sound interesting - is it something potentially able to replace e.g. esbuild for bundling frontend applications? I'm specifically curious because that would imply (static) Deno's import resolution for browser-run apps - one can use @luca's esbuild plugin, which is nice, but interacts poorly with other, custom plugins and has some rough edges.

TS/JS would be one character less to type than (T|J)S while more intelligible. Found it really funny, sorry

Hey Andy, could you share some exciting news on Deno 2.0 release?

The window/process and API cleanup should require a major release, but is there something more?
