On: Trex: A package manager for Deno

[buttercubz]

not really since it is around imports map something native to deno, the purpose is to make it something familiar like npm

npm should not be a model to be imitated. npm modules make security audits impossible.

Trex currently uses deno.land/std, deno.land/x, nest.land and any repository. nest.land provides a blockchain-based service, we just take the way npm is used for our CLI. Trex doesn't try to look for the same npm issues, we just take the import maps and create a tool to manipulate them in a friendly way for those who already know the nodejs ecosystem
