What node version do you have installed? I cannot reproduce the issue on that repo, I've tried with node versions all the way back to node 12.

I don't think it's that complicated, in my mind it's as simple as the fact that the npm/node ecosystem is huge and not supporting it at all means having to reinvent each and every library that exists there. That is a huge task and in my experience, the lack of support for npm/node packages (used to) really hamper deno's usefulness.

Now you can tap into the npm ecosystem when needed, but still use deno-first libraries as you please. If you don't like npm, then you can ignore it entirely

Jsdom should work in deno, can you open a github issue (https://github.com/denoland/deno/issues) with some details and a reproduction?

All of the simple cases I've tried seem to work fine, e.g:

  import { JSDOM } from "npm:jsdom";
  
  const dom = new JSDOM(
    `<!DOCTYPE html><p>Hello world <img src="https://example.com/logo.svg" /></p>`,
  );
  
  console.log(dom.window.document?.querySelector("p")?.textContent); // "Hello world"
  console.log(dom.window.document?.querySelector("img")?.getAttribute("src")); // "https://example.com/logo.svg"
