Bun 1.0 got released, its Packager Manager is 10x faster then yarn

#react #node #javascript #webdev

Hi! Recently, Bun 1.0 was released on September 8th. Bun is an all-in-one toolkit designed for building, testing, debugging, and running JavaScript and TypeScript applications. It has now reached a stable, production-ready status, and it's impressively faster.

I recently used Bun as an alternative to installing packages in my project folder, and the difference in speed is remarkable. While using Yarn, it took 21.13 seconds to install the packages, but Bun managed to install all the packages in less than one second.

Here's a comparison between using Yarn and Bun:

using yarn

using bun

I highly recommend giving Bun a try and comparing it with the package manager you are currently using.

How to Install

npm install -g bun

Now, navigate to your project directory, delete your previous node_modules folder, and run:

bun install

Additionally, you can use Bun as a bundler and a test runner. I initially tested its package manager capabilities and couldn't wait to share this with you. Later I will try its bunder feature and let you know the comparision
