Roadmap
OneBun is actively developed. This page outlines what is already shipped, what is coming next, and our longer-term vision.
Current Status (v0.4.x)
OneBun is at v0.4.x — a pre-1.0 release focused on API stabilization and production readiness. The core framework, DI system, and all listed packages are functional and tested. Most features needed for production HTTP services are already implemented.
