Frequently Asked Questions
Hono is ultrafast (3x faster than Express), works on any runtime (Node, Bun, Deno, Cloudflare Workers), and has a tiny bundle. It's perfect for edge deployments and modern JavaScript runtimes.
Bun offers the best performance with native TypeScript support. Node.js has more ecosystem compatibility. Server Compass supports both runtimes with optimized Docker configurations.
Yes! Hono's API is similar to Express. Most middleware patterns work the same. Hono even has an Express compatibility layer. Migration is straightforward for most applications.
Server Compass deploys Hono as a standalone Node.js or Bun server behind Nginx. You get the same ultrafast performance without Cloudflare vendor lock-in, plus full server access.
