Choose this fork only if built-in window system integration is the core requirement. If you mainly want current Deno behavior, compatibility, or long-term maintainability, upstream is the safer choice.

Choose this fork only if you specifically need its desktop-oriented customizations and are willing to own a heavily outdated codebase. For most adopters, upstream Deno is the safer choice because this fork is far behind and significantly diverged.

Prefer this fork only if subprocess sandboxing is the main requirement. If you want current Deno compatibility, tooling, and bugfixes, upstream Deno is the safer default.

Adopt only if you specifically want an old experimental Rust prototype to study or extend. If you want a usable Deno fork, the fork is too stale and too far behind upstream to be a good base.

Choose this fork only if native code sandboxing is the goal and you are prepared to own a large compatibility and maintenance burden. For general Deno users, upstream is the safer default because this fork is materially behind and heavily diverged.
