Using Hono through Bun inside a Node/Pnpm Monorepo

Hello,

I would like to use Hono inside our Turborepo project, but actually we are using

pnpm

pnpm

since many said that using

bun

bun

are not stable enough. It's possible to use and deploy Hono on Bun under that context? I want to avoid the

hono/node-server

hono/node-server

because it has some issues, and the ideal scenario would be able to deploy through Docker this hono instance (using turborepo prune feature).

I’m unaware of any issues with Hono and node. You a use pnpm as a package manager along with Bun as well. Bun appears to be stable but does not has many features as Node yet. So the choice is really yours. For the most part you can switch between Bun and Node with very minimal code changes or even make a Node entry point and a Bun entry point

I just did the same thing today with an existing

pnpm

pnpm

/ monorepo. I swapped out

hono/node-server

hono/node-server

with Bun without any problems at all. I just made sure to replace with in my

package.json

package.json

scripts.

Personally I use Bun. It has everything I need for my applications. It's either Bun of CF Pages / Workers
