BUN MONOREPOS: 45s CI, ZERO TYPE DRIFT
I built Anaqio on Bun Workspaces. No config tax. Next.js 16 + 11 shared packages. Faster iteration, harder types, zero fluff.
STOP THE CONFIG TAX. Node-based monorepos are slow. I built Anaqio (AI Fashion) using Bun Workspaces + Turborepo.
THE STACK
- RUNTIME: Bun.
- APPS: 3 Next.js 16 apps (Studio, Landing, Backoffice).
- SHARED: 11 packages. Types, schemas, Supabase, UI. Unified.
THE NUMBERS
- ZERO TYPE DRIFT: Unified Zod schemas across 3 apps. 3 hours saved/week.
- DEV SPEED:
bun installin seconds. No build step for internal packages. - CI PIPELINE: 45 seconds for full lint + type-check + build.
THE REALITY CHECK
- NATIVE ADDONS:
sharpand Prisma need caution. Test before you commit. - MATURITY: Tooling is young. Expect edge cases in debuggers.
VERDICT
Use Bun for greenfield multi-app monorepos. Spend less time waiting for builds. Spend more time shipping value.
→ Bun vs Node.js for Next.js Monorepos → React + Zod: Zero-Drift Type Architecture
I know where Bun breaks. I know where it shines. Let’s build.
