Bun is a runtime.. If you're referring to the fact it can produce a single binary, Node.js can do that too.

Yeah, bun will still include V8 in the generated binary

Bun will include the Bun runtime with JavaScriptCore, Node.js will include the Node.js runtime with V8.

Oh, thanks for the clarification, I somehow thought Bun is also V8!

Bun uses JavaScriptCore as its runtime, not V8
