What is the main benefit of using Hono with Bun?

Hono is specifically designed for speed and small footprints, making it the perfect match for Bun's high-performance JavaScript runtime, resulting in ultra-fast API response times and minimal memory usage.

How does this skill handle middleware?

It provides implementation guides for both built-in middleware—like CORS, Logger, and Bearer Auth—and custom middleware patterns for logging, authentication, and request modification.

Does this skill support request validation?

Yes, it includes detailed patterns and best practices for using Zod with the Hono validator to ensure all incoming JSON, query params, and form data are correctly typed and validated.

Can I use this for full-stack development?

Absolutely. The skill covers Hono's RPC (Remote Procedure Call) mode, which allows you to export your API's type definitions and use them in your frontend client for end-to-end type safety.
