 The `deno` module shows you your currently installed version of [Deno](https://deno.land/).
 By default the module will be shown if any of the following conditions are met:
-- The current directory contains a `mod.ts`, `mod.js`, `deps.ts` or `deps.js` file
+- The current directory contains a `deno.json`, `deno.jsonc`, `mod.ts`, `mod.js`, `deps.ts` or `deps.js` file
