Hono
Web framework built on Web Standards that runs on any JavaScript runtime.
Hono is a web framework built on Web Standards, so one application can run on Cloudflare, Fastly, Deno, Bun, AWS or Node.js. The documentation describes it as similar to Express, without a frontend. Yusuke Wada and the Hono contributors hold the copyright.
