Full Support for Bun #5359
Description
Feature Request: Full Support for Bun
Description:
Hello Socket.IO Team,
I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to request full support for Bun in the Socket.IO library. As you may know, Bun is an emerging runtime that competes with Node.js and Deno, and it has shown remarkable performance, especially with WebSocket handling.
Why Bun?
Bun is designed to be faster and more efficient than Node.js, particularly in scenarios involving WebSockets. Its performance advantages can significantly enhance the real-time capabilities of applications built with Socket.IO. Given the increasing popularity of Bun, providing support for it could attract a new user base and enhance the overall performance of Socket.IO applications.
Proposed Features:
- Compatibility Layer: Ensure that Socket.IO can be easily integrated and run on Bun without requiring extensive modifications.
- Performance Optimization: Investigate and implement optimizations that leverage Bun's strengths, particularly in WebSocket handling.
- Documentation Updates: Provide clear documentation and examples for developers looking to use Socket.IO with Bun.
Conclusion:
Supporting Bun would not only keep Socket.IO at the forefront of real-time web technology but also empower developers to build faster and more efficient applications. I believe that with Bun's growing adoption, this enhancement would be greatly appreciated by the community.
Thank you for considering this request! I look forward to your thoughts on this matter.
Best regards,
