Electrobun 2.0 is here. Too many new things to fit in a tweet so I wrote a blog post called "Cottontail, Electrobun 2.0, and Why I Decided to Jian-Yang Anthropic" Read it: blackboard.sh/blog/electro...

My Electrobun 2.0 blog post is already 3400+ words and it's just the intro that covers my thoughts on AI in open source and how the Bun/Zig (Jarred/Andrew) drama affects the future of Electrobun. For those that like long thoughtful reads.

People keep asking me about Cottontail a new JS runtime that'll be available in Electrobun 2.0 alongside Rust, Zig, and Go. Here's a screenshot of how it started vs. how it's going:

Answered this on twitter a few weeks ago when the Deno team showed me what they were working on. I'm glad I'm inspiring people. Electrobun 2.0 brings the same modular innovation I shipped for the renderer (system, CEF, WGPU) to the main process enabling Deno, Bun, Node, Zig, Rust, and Go.

I realize I post most my updates to twitter these days since that seems to be the tech center of gravity is these so here’s a quick update on Electrobun.

YoavCodes @yoav.codes · 15/05/2026

I believe it’s stdio from the process you spawn powered by zig underneath, but I’m also not sure if another process on your system with the right privileges couldn’t just sit in and listen. But it doesn’t matter either way cause rustbun is now just a slop fork of itself and completely unsafe to use

In the next version of Electrobun 1.18.0: Tons of stability fixes and enhancements. Bumped Bun and Chromium for those that bundleCEF: true. New docs: docs.electrobunny.ai/electrobun/g... Unofficial Raspberry Pi fork led by x.com/francip/stat...

A month ago I shipped Electrobun v1. A week ago I shipped a deep WGPU integration. A day ago I added 35 desktop apps people are already shipping built with Electrobun to the Readme. An hour ago Electrobun passed 10,000 Github stars.

Did a pass on Github and found a **ton** of _wildly_ cool projects being built with Electrobun. Added to the readme, you all should check them out.

In the next version of Electrobun (1.16.0): - Merged 18 PRs from the community❤️ - New apis like page zoom & MacOS workspace visibility - Lots of fixes and stability improvements - Kitchen Sink (Electrobun's integration test app) has persistent test filtering and 132 tests & playgrounds - Lot's more

I’m not saying Bluesky is over, but I had 14.5k followers on here who followed me when Electrobun was on hacker news front page for a week straight a year ago, and I had 800 followers on a fairly new twitter account yesterday 24 hours after Electrobun WGPU tweet Twitter: 400 likes Bluesky: 9 likes

DOOM is nice, but what if you could use a <electrobun-wgpu> html element right next to your <electrobun-webview> elements and instead of a fully isolated OOPIF you get a super powered GPU surface integrated into the host webview's DOM powered by (bun FFI or native FFI) -> wgpu.

So anyway I just came out of the shower to watch the Apple Keynote 🍏 only to find my wife pointing at *this* ⌚️ on the table and my dog 🌭Barkus Aurelius on the couch begging for mercy. 🙏 I then found out there is no Keynote just a bunch of ads on their youtube channel 😭

For those not on twitter the electrobun hype there is *surging*.

Replacing Python as the glue for direct to GPU ML tasks is nice, but what about DOOM 2 ways: - A C implementation (based on DoomGeneric) rendered into a GPU window. - A TypeScript port of DOOM that renders into the same kind of GPU window, using Electrobun’s WGPU APIs from Bun.

YoavCodes @yoav.codes · 01/03/2026

In a few days you no longer need Python, pip, venv, virtualenv, conda, mamba, poetry, pipenv, uv, pyenv-virtualenv, asdf, system python, homebrew python, conda python. Just native on-GPU ML/AI glue and workloads directly from Bun typescript. No webview, in Electrobun.

YoavCodes @yoav.codes · 01/03/2026

Games are nice, but Electrobuns new bun -> wgpu unlocks raw gpu compute as well. - lines of code: html: 72, css: 195, browser ts: 318, bun ts: 450. - the ui is using a system webview - the training and inference is done on gpu direct from bun typescript. - dmg is 20.9MB

YoavCodes @yoav.codes · 01/03/2026

This is an Electrobun video game app i vibe coded - 800 lines of typescript in bun - 1 bunny logo, carrots are generated - uses Electrobun's built-in Babylon adapter * wgpu window - no webviews - dmg is 21MB (basically the bun runtime + wgpu compressed) - updates as small as 4KB

2121

YoavCodes @yoav.codes · 28/02/2026

three.js is nice, but what about a robust adapter for working with Babylon’s WebGPUEngine directly from bun without needing a webview.

fam what part of don't retweet this don't you people understand?

YoavCodes @yoav.codes · 28/02/2026

top secret fam. DO NOT SHARE EXTERNALLY. the little window that opens up from the Electrobun Kitchen Sink *does not contain a webview*. - no dom - no cssom - just a native window - with direct access to webgpu/metal - three.js api layered on top - directly in bun typescript

In the next version of Colab 0.14.9: - bumped Electrobun to 1.14.4 - turned off CEF bundling. using Webkit reducing the installed file size by 70% and memory footprint with one window open by 20% - stability and other fixes VsCode: 696MB Colab: 121MB blackboard.sh/colab/

I woke up today and decided I wanted the Electrobun bunny to watch me work. 🐰👀 npx electrobun init bunny The first 20 people to reply with a screenshot of where on your screen the electrobun bunny showed up will get FREE Electrobun for life.

In the next version of Electrobun 1.14.4 - lots of stability fixes - many new templates (npx electrobun init) - `electrobun dev` now also builds your app so you don't need to do `electrobun build && electrobun dev` anymore - `electrobun dev --watch`

4/5 people who currently use Electron or Tauri agree: Electrobun is the future⚡️🐰 The other one sells books and courses for Electron or Tauri 🙈 We already live in a future without compromise. This rocket ship is just launching. Hop onboard when you’re ready to see the ✨

Here's the doc that describes how to bundle CEF/Chromium with your Electrobun app. We've supported this for months now. Electrobun is webview agnostic so when servo and ladybird are ready we'll support those renderers too. blackboard.sh/electrobun/d...

Downloading *and* applying the patch on the end user's system takes a couple of seconds and uses 30KB of data. Use Electrobun, your users will love you for it.
