Bun vs Z-Wave JS UI
A side-by-side editorial comparison of Bun and Z-Wave JS UI — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
Bun vs Z-Wave JS UI: at a glance
What is Bun?
Bun 1.4.4 adds bun fmt, a built-in Prettier-compatible formatter, two weeks after bun check.
Bun now covers formatting as well as type checking: v1.4.4 ships bun fmt, a Prettier-compatible formatter it says is 3-6x faster than oxfmt, and makes bun check 1.4-7.8x faster on large projects. The same release closes 271 issues, migrates Yarn Berry lockfiles, adds install retries with backoff, and cuts Bun.SQL CPU per query by up to 48%.
What is Z-Wave JS UI?
Z-Wave JS UI 11.25.2 fixes HTTPS certificates that the new Node 24 image rejected.
Z-Wave JS UI mostly tracks the zwave-js driver, but 11.25.0 was a fuller feature release with Configuration CC entity defaults, tighter column filters and min/max/step value hints. The Docker image moved to Node 24 in that release, and 11.25.2 now regenerates self-signed HTTPS certificates that Node 24 rejected. 11.25.1 bumped Node to 24.22.1 and zwave-js to 15.31.2.

Bun
6.3DEVOPS
Bun 1.4.4 adds bun fmt, a built-in Prettier-compatible formatter, two weeks after bun check.
◆ Current state
Bun now covers formatting as well as type checking: v1.4.4 ships bun fmt, a Prettier-compatible formatter it says is 3-6x faster than oxfmt, and makes bun check 1.4-7.8x faster on large projects. The same release closes 271 issues, migrates Yarn Berry lockfiles, adds install retries with backoff, and cuts Bun.SQL CPU per query by up to 48%.
◆ Where it's heading
After the Rust rewrite in July and bun check in v1.4.3, Bun is absorbing the remaining steps of a TypeScript toolchain one release at a time. Package-manager reliability work (Yarn Berry migration, retries, faster hoisted installs) shows it is also going after teams still on other package managers.
◆ Prediction
Expect a linter or lint mode next to round out the check/fmt pair, and more lockfile migrations aimed at pnpm and Yarn users.
Z-Wave JS UI
5.0DEVOPS
Z-Wave JS UI 11.25.2 fixes HTTPS certificates that the new Node 24 image rejected.
◆ Current state
Z-Wave JS UI mostly tracks the zwave-js driver, but 11.25.0 was a fuller feature release with Configuration CC entity defaults, tighter column filters and min/max/step value hints. The Docker image moved to Node 24 in that release, and 11.25.2 now regenerates self-signed HTTPS certificates that Node 24 rejected. 11.25.1 bumped Node to 24.22.1 and zwave-js to 15.31.2.
◆ Where it's heading
Releases alternate between thin driver bumps and occasional UI and Home Assistant discovery batches. The Node 24 move is producing its own follow-up fixes, and the Home Assistant integration remains where most user-facing changes land.
◆ Prediction
Expect the next releases to go back to zwave-js and Node patch bumps, possibly with more Node 24 compatibility fixes, and another UI batch in a few weeks.
