I work on Bun and happy to answer any questions. Note that Bun v1.1 is still compiling at the time of writing (probably for another 20 minutes)

Are there plans for adding concurrent or parallel execution to the test runner? I recently tried looking at the code base to maybe implement it myself, and it looks like it wouldn't be easy without some reworks.

  We need to do some form of this but I’m not exactly sure what yet. I suspect same process but multiple globals might work well. A lot of tests spend time sleeping or waiting for things. They might benefit from that kind of paralellism (like async/await, except between things it runs a whole other global object) Threads could also work but the problem is you have to re parse & evaluate all the code. That’s a lot of duplicate work. It’s probably still worth it for large enough apps

    Isn't there some way of cloning a loaded vm after loading a module? I would imagine that should be possible some how, that way you could parse once then execute in multiple threads.

When will `worker` API be ready for production?

Now that Discord will start showing ads, is there any chance Bun will support a communication platform that is open & ad-free like IRC, XMPP, or Matrix?
- dcgudeman 3y ago
  What kind of question is this? He is working on a JavaScript/TypeScript runtime not building a communication product. Why would you run to him to solve your pet grievance with Discord?
  - tbeseda 3y ago
    I imagine the complaint is around Bun's use of Discord as community coordination tooling -- linked in the site's header. The post isn't implying Bun should be involved in the creation of an alternative. (I'm not here to throw shade at using Discord for OSS "communities" - I do as well - And am concerned about the path forward. Just want to clarify the question's intent.)

    I'm assuming it is because Bun uses Discord? There are Discord links on their site and on Github, though the links don't seem to work.

    If open source, free software is a good enough ethos for your code base, it should be good enough for your community communications. Supporting only a proprietary locks out a swath of users & Discord in particular is an information blackhole—and now with ads!

      Which users are unable to use Discord? Note that unable is different from unwilling, and "locked out" is not an accurate description of the latter.

        Me! Discord does not consider me a real person if I don't have a phone number it approves of.

Is there a privacy policy available for the telemetry collected by default by Bun?
- throwitaway1123 3y ago
  The opt-out telemetry is worrisome. Along with the fact that there doesn't appear to be a way to disable it for single-file executables if you plan to distribute a Bun cli app to users: https://github.com/oven-sh/bun/issues/8927 https://github.com/oven-sh/bun/issues/8927

    According to this, it seems they don't actually send the telemetry: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39901755 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39901755 Hope my interpretation is correct.
    - throwitaway1123 3y ago
      Yeah I saw a Github discussion where he mentioned that the code for uploading telemetry data was disabled, but he also said he plans to re-enable that at some point: https://github.com/oven-sh/bun/discussions/2605#discussioncomment-5602971 https://github.com/oven-sh/bun/discussions/2605#discussionco... I would prefer to have the telemetry become opt-in before data collection is turned on.

        Completely agree.

love it, even `bun upgrade` is fast: On my rpi 4 that I capped to 600mhz for performance testing: Bun v1.1.0 is out! You're on 1.0.36 [3.93s] Upgraded.

> I work on Bun and happy to answer any questions. I think I saw somewhere that 1.0 did not support NextJS. Does 1.1?
- cheema33 3y ago
  I think I answered my own question. According to https://bun.sh/guides/ecosystem/nextjs https://bun.sh/guides/ecosystem/nextjs Bun does not yet support NextJS.

When are we getting UDP/dgram support?

Yours and the team's performance is so impressive. I'm not brave enough to use Bun in production yet, but count me in in a year or so ... great stuff.
