sudo apt update
sudo apt install -y deno

To install denort instead:

sudo apt install -y denort

1. Download the .deb package for your distribution available on the Releases page.
2. Install the downloaded .deb package.

sudo dpkg -i <filename>.deb

To update to a new version, just follow any of the installation methods above. There's no need to uninstall the old version; it will be updated correctly.

./build.sh <deno_version> <build_version> <architecture>
# Example: ./build.sh 2.7.2 1 arm64

./build.sh <deno_version> <build_version> all
# Example: ./build.sh 2.7.2 1 all

• Produce .deb packages on GitHub Releases
• Set up a debian mirror for easier updates
• Multi-architecture support (amd64, arm64)

• This repo is not open for issues related to Deno. This repo is only for unofficial Debian packaging.
