I work on Bun. Bun v1 is not out yet - this blog post was not supposed to be public until it's ready

  If the performance improvements are that extensive, it would be interesting to see how close JavaScript + bun would get us to Go or Java. It would be a game changer if that gap can be closed.

    IME the average, unoptimized node.js server application already scales (performs) a lot better than the average Java server application just because node.js uses non-blocking by default io and an event loop architecture that works well for most applications. Of course I imagine if the code is written with performance in mind, Java code can beat out node.js, but my experience is that out in the wild, most Java code is not particularly performant.

    Just learn Go. Honestly it's pretty simple to pick up, especially now with the slices package. I can't imagine using a loosely typed language anymore, even with an IDE to baby me.

  If I have bun on my computer, do I need node?
