Bun and Hono Are You Need
I wanted to write a small journey I have been on over the last couple of months. I have been looking for a reason to actually use Bun for a project and I think I found it: to rebuild my blog.
Some Context
My old blog was built with 11ty and I deployed it manually with rsync behind a very simple NGiNX virtualhost. This was fine but I found I never wanted to actually write for it after a while. It didn't feel like mine.
Bun
I work with a lot of JavaScript in my day-to-day job. Over the time we moved to TypeScript and all the things that come with that. Last year, I got really into the state of Bun and Deno.
Hono
I was looking at Bun-specific Express.js alternatives and a colleague of mine pointed me to Hono. I looked through the Hono documentation and it just clicked with me. Most of these micro-frameworks do a lot of the same thing.
