Latest Bun runtime just dropped some serious upgrades. They crushed 194 bugs this round—apparently the community was pretty vocal about these (over 400 upvotes worth of complaints got addressed).



The highlight? URLPattern API finally landed. Plus they've tweaked how executables handle config files now—no more auto-loading .env, bunfig.toml, tsconfig, or package.json when you're running compiled binaries. Makes sense for production deployments.

Oh, and fake timers are now baked into bun:test. Anyone doing async testing knows this was overdue.

Rest is the usual—tons of fixes across the board. Shoutout to the 14 devs who contributed. Pretty solid iteration if you're building anything that touches JavaScript infrastructure.

194 bugs cleared in one go, Bun is doing pretty well this time... Especially since the URLPattern API is finally here, and the issue with config auto-loading in production has been fixed. --- async testing finally has fake timers, this should have been done long ago. --- Community feedback got 400+ likes before any action, developers are still a bit lazy, haha. --- The change to auto-load config files is brilliant, now we don't have to guess with the compiled binary anymore. --- Only 14 contributors pulled this off? Not bad, not bad. This kind of iteration pace is really important for the infrastructure layer. --- The URLPattern API is here? I was just wondering when we'd be able to use it... --- Another batch of routine fixes, but the adjustment to .env auto-loading really solved a big problem.

I’ve been fucking waiting for this URLPattern API, and it’s finally here. This Bun update looks seriously well done—194 bugs squashed in one go, and they actually delivered on such a highly requested feature. Not auto-loading config files is a bold move, but it really does make production environments much cleaner and less of a hassle. How did they not have fake timers built-in before? Async testing should finally be way less of a pain now. If they keep going this hard, the JavaScript toolchain is going to get completely reshaped by Bun. 14 contributors working together, that’s some insane efficiency.

Seriously, the URLPattern API is finally here. This update actually has some substance. --- 194 bugs fixed in one go, that must have been such a headache. The community has been asking for this for so long and it's only now being addressed. --- Not auto-loading the config file is a plus. This should have been the practice in production environments a long time ago. --- Fake timers are now built into testing, so those doing asynchronous tests are finally relieved. --- With 14 people making this much progress, I’m optimistic about whether Bun can truly threaten Node. --- Another year of patching and fixing—JavaScript infrastructure is really competitive. --- Config files not auto-loading—so many pitfalls from before are finally being addressed.

194 bugs wiped out in one go, no wonder the community is so hyped—I'm speechless. --- The URLPattern API is finally here, but the real game changer is the change where the config file no longer loads automatically. --- Fake timers have finally made it into bun:test, async testing newbies can finally breathe a sigh of relief. --- Another solid round of iteration, these folks really know what they're doing. --- The change in handling config files is great, finally no more black magic needed in production. --- 14 contributors pulled this off, I like this pace. --- The URLPattern API is live now, that's nice, just not sure how smoothly it'll work in production. --- Fixing 194 in one go, those 400 community likes were well deserved.

194 bugs fixed in one go, that's some impressive speed. --- The URLPattern API is finally here, it's about time. --- I give full marks for removing automatic configuration file loading—this is exactly how it should be done in production. --- Fake timers are now built into the test suite, so asynchronous test fans don't have to struggle anymore. --- 14 contributors went through everything, Bun's iteration speed is definitely on point. --- This version mainly patches vulnerabilities, nothing revolutionary, but it has everything it should. --- The most important thing is still URLPattern—that's the real productivity booster.
