About Bun
Bun keeps absorbing the toolchain — image processing, HTTP/3, and a built-in test runner
Bun is executing a relentless all-in-one runtime strategy: every release folds another piece of the JavaScript toolchain into the binary. Recent versions added a built-in image-processing API (Bun.Image), HTTP/3 (QUIC) in Bun.serve, a parallel/isolated/sharded test runner, an in-process cron scheduler, headless WebView automation, and a built-in Markdown parser — alongside continuous performance gains and Node.js compatibility work. Releases routinely close 80 to 155 issues each.
