Anthropic just bought Bun: the fast, Zig-based JavaScript runtime that has shaken up the entire web development ecosystem. But the real story isn’t the acquisition itself. It’s why an AI company would buy a runtime at a moment when tools like Bolt, Lovable, v0, Wabi, and Replit are all building on top of NodeJS. If everyone else is doubling down on Node, why did Anthropic walk in the opposite direction? This video explores the deeper reasons behind the move starting with: - how NodeJS rose, - where it got stuck, and - why Bun’s design is fundamentally different. We look at the growing “vibe-coding” wave, where developers and non-developers alike are building full apps effortlessly, and examine how the needs of AI-generated code don’t quite match the architecture of NodeJS. We also explore the quieter truth that no one talks about: NodeJS wasn’t built for the kind of predictable, instant-start, tightly controlled execution environments modern AI agents require. Bun was. But does that mean NodeJS is in trouble? Is Bun really positioned to replace it? Does owning a runtime give Anthropic an edge that OpenAI, Meta, and Google don’t have yet? This video doesn’t give you all the answers up front. It gives you the trail from Bun’s architecture, Node’s limitations, the rise of vibe coding platforms, and the strategic hints hidden inside Anthropic’s new direction. The real implications? They unfold once you watch. #BunJS #NodeJS #Anthropic #Claude #JavaScript #AIDevelopment #TechStrategy #VibeCoding #WebDevelopment #DevTools #BackendDevelopment ----------- Like, Share, and Subscribe for more! ------------- Watched the full video and want to become a programmer?
