**QUESTIONS ABOUT MY SETUP**

I needed to create an app for a client while is was onsite. I was on the clock and bun helped me to get my work done fast. 0 Setup pain. Love it

Just running a .ts file without any configuration is a amazing and saves us so much time

[DodaGarcia]

I really love Bun. Even if it doesn't live 100% up to the hype (nothing ever does), just not having to tinker around every time I want to use Typescript in a new project already makes it a godsend.

I had a mess around with Bun today too - knocked up a web service layer in a few minutes - not bad at all. I'm not a big fan of NodeJS anymore and looking for alternatives at the moment. Bun is a step in the right direction.

[CodingEagle_OFFICIAL]

That's really cool. If developers can switch their programs from Node.js to Bun easily and without trouble, then that removes the main barrier to adoption.

Already try on a new NextJs project and dependencies installation was totally crazy 😅😅 so simple to use 😁

[WebDevEducation]

I'm exactly the same. I've just started using bun working for a new npm package and using bun makes things INSANELY easy! No more gross rollup configs 😆

[alikan]

Love Bun and your new decor! Although, your previously simple background was also very intriguing.

[juanmacias]

I'm also loving Bun, I'm hoping it takes off in popularity, and adoption! <3

remember when Deno came out to replace node :D, honestly Bun is not that bad though but wont replace node anytime soon

[uncountableuk]

I'm doing your astro course at the moment on vscode ... I use a remote node container ... Do you reckon I can just swap out for a bun container and it'll work?

[whyrulikedis]

i love bun and especially elsyia but have had a huge amount of problem with the wsl a few on bun to which makes it not ready at all. love elysia especially with swagger.

[justingiovanetti]

Are the modules local to the project? node_modules are a nightmare to sync.

[traviswaithmair]

What does it look like on ci such as google actions?

[ojikutu]

Can we have multi-threaded support out of the box?

[marvinfok]

The node team had done a great job maintaining it for years, but as it is created more than a decade, helping JS developers with their work. it is just time that something will replace it because of new technology and maybe bun will be that. Still I want to give a big thank you to the node team!

Funny thing is every1 is always mentioning Multer for file uploads, but the fact remains - Formidable is STILL to this date the most downloaded and used in hundreds of prod env.

It has had not many updates recently, & w/ Node20 you don't even need a pkg but yea.

[bryson]

Any particular reason you were using fs instead of the bun version?

[alaat]

but where deploy my bun projects in production?

[twd]

I think it's so early to use Bun over Node, but that doesn't mean not to play around 😁!!!
