[Feat]: Migrate from node to bun
What is your suggestion?
I just upgraded my web server with many independent services and hundreds of modules from node to bun in less than an hour. It feels faster now. :wink: Since code-server uses node.js in the backend, it might be noticeably faster when using bun, too. At least we might have a way to use bun if installed and otherwise node.js.
Why do you want this feature?
Speedup? Fun, definitely.
Are there any workarounds to get this functionality today?
Someone could hack around with the local installation.
Are you interested in submitting a PR for this?
Maybe, but mainly interested in some discussion here.
Great Idea!! I am interested in this as well. I may try to experiment with it.
This would be an interesting experiment especially with benchmarks. Though, if it was implemented it might be better done upstream in https://github.com/microsoft/vscode, that way everyone benefits.
Going to mark this as upstream and out of scope for code-server, would still like to see this upstream though since building VS Code is so slow.
