Bun

Combine filters →

Bun is a JavaScript runtime with its own package manager and bundler, and it runs much of the code written for Node.js. A record carries this value when its documentation names Bun as a supported way to run the deployed site, not when Bun is only used to install packages. Software that runs on Bun usually documents other options too, often Node.js, so the record shows whether a host without Bun can still run it. Hono and SvelteKit are examples.

13 projects need Bun to host, listed alphabetically. Mostly web frameworks, APIs and backends and site and docs generators, of 9 categories in all. 77 records do not record this field, and cannot appear here either way. For 206 the question does not apply. Counts only projects with momentum; the full list has the rest.

Which of these is best?

We don't know. A portfolio, a shop and a documentation site need different things from their software, and so does a team of one against an agency. Nobody pays to be listed here and the order is alphabetical.
