princejs

I'm 13 and built PrinceJS, but my first benchmarks were wrong. HN helped me fix them: What I learned: Was using autocannon (too slow for Bun) instead of oha Real benchmarks: 21,748 req/s (top 3 among Bun frameworks) Fixed security issues in JWT/rate limiting Current status: Competitive with Elysia/Hono on real benchmarks Honest about capabilities, no more "fastest" claims Try it: bun add princejs GitHub: https://github.com/MatthewTheCoder1218/princejs Would love feedback on what features to add next!

After my original post, the Hacker News community helped me identify critical issues with my benchmarking approach. Here's what I learned: The Problem: I used autocannon for benchmarking, which can't handle Bun.serve speeds (as pointed out by Elysia's maintainer) Made exaggerated performance claims Had security vulnerabilities in JWT implementation The Fix: Switched to oha for accurate benchmarks: 21,748 req/s (placing PrinceJS among top 3 Bun frameworks) Fixed all security issues Removed "fastest" claims, now positioning honestly as competitive Technical Details: Real oha results: Elysia (25,312), Hono (22,124), PrinceJS (21,748), Express (9,325) Running on Windows 10 with: oha -c 100 -z 30s Next step: Cloud VM testing for consistent, reproducible benchmarks The framework is now more honest about its capabilities while still delivering c

some more after reading the source: - JWT needs to be validated, as it is, your implementation[1] happily accepts anything, you can impersonate anyone you want. I'd argue that it's a bad default choice too [2] - baking-in resend.com as email provider is unlikely to be useful for most people - x-forwarded-for [3] is only added by proxy servers, and will often not be present. This means you'll be applying a shared rate limit to most of your users - the 'ai' helper is missing from the code. If this is vibe-coded, having tests for the examples will help keep it cohesive Sorry if this is a lot, I hope it can help. [1] https://github.com/MatthewTheCoder1218/princejs/blob/main/sr...

this is pretty fun, slick to think you can do things like this now and it will be performant: https://github.com/MatthewTheCoder1218/princejs/blob/main/sr... interesting to dig deep into the bun runtime (it's in zig) to see how this remains efficient. it's a heap: https://github.com/oven-sh/bun/blob/509a97a43516fe4f6d4ff400... of these: https://github.com/oven-sh/bun/blob/509a97a43516fe4f6d4ff400... pretty cool clean and simple code for the framework (and bun).

Hey HN, I'm 13, from Nigeria, and I just released PrinceJS — the fastest web framework for Bun right now. • 19,200 req/s (beats Hono/Elysia/Express) • 2.8 kB gzipped • Tree-shakable (cache, AI, email, cron, SSE, queue, test, static...) • Zero deps. Zero config. Built in < 1 week. No team. Just me and Bun. Try it: `bun add princejs` GitHub: https://github.com/MatthewTheCoder1218/princejs Docs: https://princejs.vercel.app Brutal feedback welcome.
