It is July 6, 2022, and you're watching The Code Report.
One of the most profound quotes about the ecosystem comes from an old British guy who said Out of intense complexities, intense simplicities emerge.
At the time, nobody knew what the hell he was thing about, but in 2022, it's clear he was prophesizing the rise of a new JavaScript runtime called BUN.
That's right.
You no longer need Node.
Js or Deno, so go ahead and uninstall those from your system right now.
Bun just announced its 1st beta release and makes the claim that it's significantly faster than Node or Deno.
Not just a little bit faster, but orders of magnitude faster.
It's always a good idea to be skeptical about benchmarks provided by the creator of the tool, but as you can see here, it's about 3 times faster when server rendering React, running database queries, support executing native code with foreign functions.
Impressive.
Very nice.
Mhmm.
But what I'm more excited about is what this tool can do to simplify life as a developer.
We'll get into that in just a minute, but first, I know my mom is gonna ask me what a JavaScript runtime is in the first place.
You can think of JavaScript like gasoline.
It's dangerous and bad for the environment, by itself isn't very useful.
To make JavaScript or gasoline useful, it needs to run through an engine to convert it into raw energy or machine code for a CPU.
The most popular JavaScript engine is Google's V eight, which powers Chrome, Node and Deno, and makes JavaScript execution extremely fast with just in time compilation.
Now, gasoline bind with an engine still isn't very useful.
The average person wants that engine in a car with user friendly APIs like wheels, file system access, subwoofers, web sockets, automatic transmission, and so on.
A JavaScript run time is a complete car.
All you have to do is put a little bit of JavaScript in the tank and it will take you anywhere you wanna go.
Now that we're done with that ridiculous analogy, let's talk about what spun special, a big one is obviously performance, but how does it actually go so fast?
Well, first of all, it doesn't use the v eight engine, but instead uses JavaScript core from WebKit, which is generally considered to be faster, but more difficult to work with.
In addition, it's written in a low level programming language called Zig.
This is a relatively new language that's similar to C or Rust and the creators of BUN say the lack of hidden control flow makes it much simpler to write fast software.
It's fun to go fast, but more more importantly, bun is an all in one run time.
It has a native bundler to replace tools like webpack and also has a native transpiler, so you can write TypeScript code out as a box with cool features like top level await, an idea that's already been pioneered by Deno, but BUN will also transpile your JSX files.
Also like Deno, it prioritizes web APIs like Fetch, while at the same time also supporting many node core modules, as well as node API, which will allow many NPM packages to also work in BUN.
In fact, it implements Node's module resolution algorithm, which means you can install packages from NPM into BUN and those packages install 20 times faster.
It feels like magic.
Another nice ergonomic feature is that environment variables load automatically.
It's dot like Node.
Js where you have to install dotenv into every project.
It also comes with its own test runner similar to Jest, and as you might imagine, it's fast.
Some might as we call it, blazingly fast.
Sounds awesome, but keep in mind this project is in its infancy.
There will be bugs.
If you're on Windows, you'll have to use WSL, and even attack gave me some issues, but overall, my final analysis on Bun is that this thing is busting.
No cap, for real.
This has been the code report.
Thanks for watching, and I will see you in the next one.

The speaker discusses the benefits of the new JavaScript developers tool, including its speed, performance, and ease of use. They also mention its use in building fast, efficient code, and its use in low level programming language, namely Google's V8. The speaker concludes that Bun is a busting code, and notes that it is in its infancy.
JavaScript just got way faster
It is July 6, 2022, and you're watching The Code Report. One of the most profound quotes about the ecosystem comes from an old British guy who said Out of intense complexities, intense simplicities emerge. At the time, nobody knew what the hell he was thing about, but in 2022, it's clear he was prophesizing the rise of a new JavaScript runtime called BUN. That's right. You no longer need Node. Js or Deno, so go ahead and uninstall those from your system right now. Bun just announced its 1st beta release and makes the claim that it's significantly faster than Node or Deno. Not just a little bit faster, but orders of magnitude faster. It's always a good idea to be skeptical about benchmarks provided by the creator of the tool, but as you can see here, it's about 3 times faster when server rendering React, running database queries, support executing native code with foreign functions. Impressive. Very nice. Mhmm. But what I'm more excited about is what this tool can do to simplify life as a developer. We'll get into that in just a minute, but first, I know my mom is gonna ask me what a JavaScript runtime is in the first place. You can think of JavaScript like gasoline. It's dangerous and bad for the environment, by itself isn't very useful. To make JavaScript or gasoline useful, it needs to run through an engine to convert it into raw energy or machine code for a CPU. The most popular JavaScript engine is Google's V eight, which powers Chrome, Node and Deno, and makes JavaScript execution extremely fast with just in time compilation. Now, gasoline bind with an engine still isn't very useful. The average person wants that engine in a car with user friendly APIs like wheels, file system access, subwoofers, web sockets, automatic transmission, and so on. A JavaScript run time is a complete car. All you have to do is put a little bit of JavaScript in the tank and it will take you anywhere you wanna go. Now that we're done with that ridiculous analogy, let's talk about what spun special, a big one is obviously performance, but how does it actually go so fast? Well, first of all, it doesn't use the v eight engine, but instead uses JavaScript core from WebKit, which is generally considered to be faster, but more difficult to work with. In addition, it's written in a low level programming language called Zig. This is a relatively new language that's similar to C or Rust and the creators of BUN say the lack of hidden control flow makes it much simpler to write fast software. It's fun to go fast, but more more importantly, bun is an all in one run time. It has a native bundler to replace tools like webpack and also has a native transpiler, so you can write TypeScript code out as a box with cool features like top level await, an idea that's already been pioneered by Deno, but BUN will also transpile your JSX files. Also like Deno, it prioritizes web APIs like Fetch, while at the same time also supporting many node core modules, as well as node API, which will allow many NPM packages to also work in BUN. In fact, it implements Node's module resolution algorithm, which means you can install packages from NPM into BUN and those packages install 20 times faster. It feels like magic. Another nice ergonomic feature is that environment variables load automatically. It's dot like Node. Js where you have to install dotenv into every project. It also comes with its own test runner similar to Jest, and as you might imagine, it's fast. Some might as we call it, blazingly fast. Sounds awesome, but keep in mind this project is in its infancy. There will be bugs. If you're on Windows, you'll have to use WSL, and even attack gave me some issues, but overall, my final analysis on Bun is that this thing is busting. No cap, for real. This has been the code report. Thanks for watching, and I will see you in the next one.
