description Fresh (Deno) Overview

Fresh is an open-source web framework for the Deno runtime that uses Preact components and an islands architecture. Pages are rendered on the server, while interactive client-side code is added only to designated islands, reducing the amount of JavaScript sent for otherwise static content. Fresh is intended for developers building TypeScript web applications with file-based routing and deployment through the Deno ecosystem.
