chatcraft.org VS bun

My https://chatcraft.org offers free models and is open source. They start throttling under heavier usage tho.

Gonna add some free models with search in future

This week, I came across an interesting problem while working on an issue in ChatCraft.

This has been a true privilege working on a cool project with a great team, and under an exceptional mentor.

Finally, Its the last week of semester and we had our last class of Open Source Development Project with David Humphrey. I would like to thank David for being my professor and mentor. I've taken 30 courses in Seneca and I would like to say that the three courses by David Humphrey were the one in which I learnt the most, i.e two open source courses which enhanced my github profile, gained confidence in git skills. Also before the courses ,I always wanted to contribute in Open Source but had no idea where to start from. I would also like to thank Taras Glek for giving me an opportunity to work on ChatCraft.org. Working on ChatCraft has been the biggest project I've ever worked on till date.

This week we met with Taras, the founder of ChatCraft online to showcase our contributions and get some professional advice from him. It was very rewarding to see what we managed to get done in the span of four months with our small team of six!

This semester has been a whirlwind of coding, collaboration, and learning as I dove headfirst into the world of open source development with ChatCraft. My journey was marked by significant contributions, including 14 pull requests (PRs), the development of 4 major features, and the squashing of numerous bugs. Here's a closer look at what I've accomplished and the invaluable lessons I've learned along the way.

PR 580 Merged

That's right. The BIG 2.0 release for ChatCraft is scheduled by the end of next week. We have been working to build on ChatCraft's existing functionality in its v1.0 state for almost 13 weeks now, and have successfully added lots of cool features (even this post's cover photo is generated by ChatCraft).

This week on ChatCraft, I fixed a few bugs I found in production that have arisen since the new custom provider feature was implemented. I was able to find these bugs because I reviewed many PRs this week and during testing those PRs I was able to see some abnormal behaviour.

ChatCraft Release 1.9 is available here

It has a decent compatibility with both Jest and Vitest's APIs (you can track progress here so you can use it as almost a drop-in replacement for either. Just as Node's, it has describe/it, mock, test and others, but with the expect syntax (which I find more readable). For example:

In this third and final article in the series on HTML Streaming, we will explore the practical implementation of the Diff DOM Streaming library in web browsing. This approach will allow any website using web components to retain its state during browsing. We will discuss in detail how to achieve this step by step using VanillaJS and Bun.

At Node Conference 2023, Jarred Sumner (creator of Bun) showed a demo of server components in Bun, so there is at least partial support in that ecosystem. The Bun repo provides bun-plugin-server-components as the official plugin for server components. And while I haven’t looked at it in-depth, Marz claims to be a “React Server Components Framework for Bun”.

Continuously evolving, Bun is currently optimized for MacOS and Linux, with ongoing efforts towards Windows compatibility. Tailored for resource-constrained environments like serverless functions, it emerges as an ideal solution. The Bun team is committed to achieving comprehensive Node.js compatibility and seamless integration with prevalent frameworks. For those intrigued by Bun's potential and want to give it a try, more information is available on its website at https://bun.sh/.

Let’s say you are interested in learning more about Bun and probably give it a try. Bun has a website, where you can learn more about Bun and its features (including all the benchmark data captured in this issue), and here is the link.

Looks like it, it seems the 2% are mostly odd platform specific issues that the authors' did not deem very important (my assumption for the release happening anyway). AFAIK this[1] PR tries to fix them.

Bun has a solution for it. First of all, it already has a list of trusted dependencies. For them, Bun will execute all necessary scripts by default. Otherwise, you can add it to trustedDependecies in your package.json file. In Bun community usage of trustedDependencies is a hot topic. There are several suggestions on how to improve it.

Install Node.js (or Bun, or Deno, or whatever JS runtime you prefer) if it's not there

I think maybe I was unclear. I'm talking about writing libraries that abstract across these differences and provide a single API, as sibling describes. I already know it's possible. I made a simple filesystem abstraction here[0] and a very simple HTTP library that uses it here[1]. They both work in Node/Deno and the browser. Unfortunately I ran into issues with Bun's slice implementation[2]. But I suspect there's a much better way of detecting and using the different backends.
