Fair point, that was misleading. bunqueue is single-server only today. “Small clusters” is on the roadmap but I should’ve been clearer it’s not there yet.

No magic, just good engineering. That’s it.

True, most apps will never hit the scale where it matters. But when you do, retrofitting a queue is painful.

I get the concern, but there’s a spectrum. Using an LLM to polish grammar vs. having it generate opinions wholesale are different things.

The comment sounds "polished" because I've probably described this project dozens of times at this point. When you repeat the same thing over and over you naturally end up with a tight version of it. That's not an LLM, t

This is exactly why I built bunqueue — a job queue for Bun backed by SQLite. No Redis, no external dependencies, just bun:sqlite with WAL mode for concurrent access. Handles 100k+ jobs/sec on a single node. The SQL-as-queue pattern is

Transparent answer about bunqueue's architecture. Current state: bunqueue is single-server with SQLite persistence. If the server goes down for 5 minutes, clients cannot push/pull during that window. However: the client SDK has au

Hey, I built this because I needed a simple job queue for a side project but didn't want to set up Redis just for that. BunQueue uses SQLite as the backend with 16 shards for parallelism, so it's easy to deploy with zero external
