JavaScript Weekly issue #794 covers several notable developments: Bun is being rewritten from Zig to Rust (with ~$165k in Claude Code API usage), forming the basis of Bun 1.4. TypeScript 7 and npm 12 are referenced as headline items. Other highlights include Lea Verou defending polyfills against criticism from standards editor Anne van Kesteren, Marijn Haverbeke's new Wordgard rich text editor and its collaborative editing approach using OT instead of CRDTs, a reverse engineering breakdown of ChatGPT's web stack (React Router 7, TanStack Query, Radix, ProseMirror), and Ant — a new 9MB JavaScript runtime built in C with no V8/JSC/SpiderMonkey. Smaller releases include Fuse.js 7.5, Nano ID 6.0 (4x faster), and Mantine Vue.
