unless you use unpkg with ?module, in which case it's wicked-easy.

I think you could also reference a TS file from a github repo that's a TypeScript project and it'd work too maybe? I'll have to install Deno and try it out.

Deno only loads code via ES import statements (no require) using URLs or relative file paths that include the file extension. Additionally, deno does not support index.ts or index.js. So generally no drag and drop compatibility with node (though here's an example of a module that supports both deno and node: github.com/luvies/lazy). Still, probably pretty easy to create a migration script to make a project Deno compatible.
