3rd party modules Jump to heading

deno.land/x is a hosting service for Deno scripts. It caches releases of open-source modules stored on GitHub and serves them at an easy-to-remember domain.

Deno can import modules from any location on the web, like GitHub, a personal webserver, or a CDN like esm.sh, Skypack, jspm.io or jsDelivr.

Publishing your own modules Jump to heading

All modules on deno.land/x need to be hosted as public repositories on GitHub.com.

deno.land/x downloads and stores your repository contents every time you create a git tag. We only do this once for every tag. This ensures that the contents we serve for a specific version can never change.
