Bun v1.2 is here!

This release brings major progress in Node.js compatibility, a key component of Bun’s value proposition.

But that’s not all - Bun 1.2 now includes:
A built-in S3 object storage API
A built-in Postgres client

Sometimes people focus too much on mastering just one thing, but knowing multiple programming languages and frameworks (*cough* React) is invaluable . I've written Java and PHP in the past, but it's no loss . Now my lean to Go & Bun.js+TypeScript , but that could change — Zig looks promising .

Just added a comment on the discussion thread here: https://github.com/oven-sh/bun/discussions/16861

If anyone else is in the same boat would appreciate an update (comment etc).

But I realise this is pretty niche.

OMG! Bun.js finally has a built-in router for Bun.serve()! This dropped way faster than I expected, and I’m seriously impressed.

It was not meant to be a used project, but after a while it got 22 stars and 2 forks for my express-inspired crappy bun router.

It seems that Hono is not that well accepted, I guess.
I think Hono is a well-build tool.

If you're on macOS, slightly techy, and want a very easy way to download all your Amazon #Kindle books, I can strongly recommend this tool by @treetrum. Uses #BunJS, super fast, even shows progress bars for the downloads!!

(On Feb 26, Amazon will stop allowing ebook downloads through a browser.)

It's really a fun project.

So far:
- web server up and running
- unit test suite with some basic tests up and running
- filesystem access (list/read files)
- typescript code only

and all of that out of the box with both engines, zero dependency!

This is SOOO huge, in the past you needed like hundrets of packages (cascaded) for that! Insane!

Released `bun-plugin-dlight` 0.5! Did you know you can use Bun.build to transpile and bundle html/js/ts? This is a simple plugin for `Bun.build` that lets you transpile DLight views for your web app (see https://dlight.dev)

What a time to be alive:
- #nodejs support direct execution of #typescript
- #nodejs has a builtin testrunner
- #bunjs as a big new release: v1.2.0 which increases compatiblity further

What can be more logical than building a new project, using typescript, and supporting bun AND node out of the box?

let the low-depencdency high-performance javascript days begin!

#DenoJS executable for x86_64 Linux has meanwhile grown to 140 Mb? What's wrong with this world...
At least #BunJS is still under 100 Mb, but for how long...
#JavaScript #TypeScript

We have benchmarked SVR.JS (w/o clustering)
again on various JavaScript runtimes.

We have checked Node.JS, Deno, and Bun.

The result? Bun is the most efficient.

Good job, Bun!
