## Description

Built with Deno, it leverages the supergateway package to handle communication and the @modelcontextprotocol/server-brave-search module for API integration. The server runs on port 8080 and uses standard input/output for data exchange. It's designed for easy deployment using Docker, making it suitable for applications that require secure and privacy-respecting web search capabilities, such as research assistants or content aggregation tools.
