Bun has been acquired by Anthropic. Anthropic is betting on Bun as the infrastructure powering Claude Code, Claude Agent SDK, and future AI coding products & tools.
[…]
- Bun stays open-source & MIT-licensed
- Bun continues to be extremely actively maintained
- The same team still works on Bun
- Bun is still built in public on GitHub
- Bun’s roadmap will continue to focus on high performance JavaScript tooling, Node.js compatibility & replacing Node.js as the default server-side runtime for JavaScript
[…]
Instead of putting our users & community through “Bun, the VC-backed startups tries to figure out monetization” – thanks to Anthropic, we can skip that chapter entirely and focus on building the best JavaScript tooling.
