BUN is a modern all-in-one JavaScript runtime environment that achieves new levels of performance. It includes BUN dev, a fast front-end dev server, BUN install, a speedy package manager, and BUN run, a fast package runner. BUN supports JSX, has optimized React server-side rendering, and offers hot module reloading on the server. The priorities for BUN include stability, node compatibility, documentation improvement, missing features in BUN install, AST plugin API, native Windows support, Bundler and Minifier optimization, and easier deployment to production. BUN's AST plugin API allows for bundle-time JavaScript execution and embedding code, potentially inspiring new frameworks.

<p>Bun’s builtin JSX transpiler, hot reloads on the server, JSX prop punning, macro api, automatic package installs, console.log JSX support, 4x faster serverside rendering and more make Bun the best runtime for building React apps</p>

Bun is a modern JavaScript runtime environment that combines a bundler, transpiler, package manager, and runtime. It offers faster installation of NPM packages and execution of package.json scripts. Bun introduces a new JavaScript and TypeScript bundler with built-in support for server components, enabling easy RPC with the client. This allows for code splitting and running code that streamingly renders React or any other library from the server and mixes it with client code, resulting in less JavaScript sent to the client.

<p>An early look at using server components via Bun’s new bundler, with and without React.</p>
