    Incredibly fast JavaScript runtime, bundler, test runner, and package manager – all in one

The release of the bun JS/TS runtime launched its name to the fore and developer interest has increased rapidly over the last two years - it debuted on StackOverflow's 2023 survey at an impressive initial 39.5% on the admired rating, and the following year rose to 73.8% - well ahead of C's 47.4% , and only just tailing Rust's 82.2%.
