Really impressive list of changes. Bun sounds like the dream node alternative, I hope they succeed in their mission.
And I’m glad they spent time on Windows support, that’s something neglected in the web development world
- madsbuch 3y agoI am curios, why do you think they did not succeed yet?
- WuxiFingerHold 3y agoThere's been some polls on social media: Overall picture was 80-90% using Node. Then Bun, then Deno. I'd bet in the real world it's 99% Node for production. If in 3 years 5% were using Bun, it would be a great success (Node usage is huge). I think they're on track, but would not recommend Bun for production backends as of now.
- dgellow 3y agoFrom their website: > The goal of Bun is to run most of the world's server-side JavaScript and provide tools to improve performance, reduce complexity, and multiply developer productivity. Bun is still pretty young and experimental, and not really production ready, though it’s getting there fast. If it grows enough to force node to improve, or if it takes over node, that would be a success based on their own goal
