Great watch but to summarize:
-
Bun beats Node/Yarn for package installation
-
Somewhat better API/DX in some ways.
-
Loses poorly in testing performance
-
Tons of incompatibility issues/performance issues in other areas.
General summary: Just don’t use Bun yet, seems like it needs some more time in the oven.
In my opinion, any advancement is worthwhile, even if current consensus is that it’s over-optimization. And if it starts tying up its loose ends, it’ll no doubt benefit node developers as well. Healthy competition and all that.
