Running Bun in Production

Bun 1.0 was released in September 2023. I’ve been using it on both small and large production applications since November 2023. You can switch to Bun today! Bun calls itself “a fast all-in-one toolkit”. On the surface it is a replacement for Node.js and a competitor to Deno, but it’s main goal is to modernize JavaScript development tooling. It’s faster than Node and Deno thanks to its use of Zig, a modern bare-metal programming language.
