The rust version is being used by Claude Code though - which is a fairly large product!

I was hoping for more push back against https://bun.com/blog/bun-in-rust - which is pretty thorough and has some decent arguments and reasoning for why they did the rewrite.

I think they meant “released and available for use” rather than just out in the wild.

How much of the Bun/Node API surface does Claude Code actually use though? Conceptually it's a relatively simple TUI application.

Yeah, but it's a TUI that has more bugs and worse performance than any other TUI in history. It's not like we'd notice a user after free.
