✨ In September 2024, The React Native Show has become React Universe On Air ✨ 

Unless you live under a rock, you must have heard about the recent release of Bun 1.0. For those of you who somehow missed that announcement, Bun is a fast, all-in-one toolkit for running, building, testing, and debugging JavaScript and TypeScript, from a single file to a full-stack application – and as of September 8, it’s finally stable and production-ready. 

Much like the rest of the community, we’re pretty excited about the release and Bun in general – and we’re even more excited to have the brain behind it all, Jarred Sumner, as our next Coffee Talk guest. Together, we discuss:
• Bun’s origins, primary purpose, and core features
• the inner workings of Bun, including its use of Zig and the factors that contribute to its lightning-fast performance
• the toolkit’s versatility and potential as a replacement for Node.js
• Bun's role within the JavaScript and React Native ecosystem, including its relationship with Metro and the benefits it brings to React and React Native developers
• the journey towards Bun 1.0, including the work style at Oven, the lessons learned, and the influence of a significant investment on the project's future

Tune in, try Bun 1.0, and let us know how it works for you!
