The full-stack
TypeScript framework
for Bun
One framework for Bun with the pieces already bolted together: auth, ORM, validation, mail, queues, cache, testing. You install it, you start writing your app. No 20-library setup week. Also runs on Node.js.
Spend less time
wiring things up.
tekir aims to be the framework you can actually ship with on day one. The boring parts (auth, sessions, queues, mail) are already handled so you get to the real work.
Bun Native
Built from the ground up for Bun.serve. Zero adapter overhead, so your handlers run at bare-metal speed.
Within 1% of raw Bun
Routes compile ahead of time and resolve in nanoseconds, so you pay almost nothing for having a framework wrapped around Bun.serve.
Full-Stack ORM
ActiveRecord models with lifecycle hooks, fluent query builder, relationships, migrations, and seeders.
Type Safe
Full TypeScript throughout. No `any` leaks, no escape hatches. Your IDE knows everything at every layer.
46 Packages
Auth, ORM, mail, queues, cron, cache, i18n. Shared DI container, shared config, one release at a time so your lockfile never goes out of sync.
Familiar DX
IoC container, service providers, and conventions inspired by Laravel, Rails, and AdonisJS. If you've used any of them, you'll feel right at home.
Code you'll actually enjoy writing
Two ways to write the same thing. Pick whichever you're comfortable with, both are fully typed and both work the same at runtime.
import type { TekirApp } from '@tekir/core'
import { UserController } from '#controllers/user_controller'
import { PostController } from '#controllers/post_controller'
import { authenticate, guest } from '@tekir/auth'
export default function({ router }: TekirApp) {
router.register(UserController)
router.register(PostController)
router.group(() => {
router.get('/login', () => ({ page: 'login' }))
router.post('/login', () => ({ token: '...' }))
}).middleware([guest()])
}Define routes with grouped middleware, prefixes, and authentication, all in one file.
Fast because Bun is fast.
tekir runs on top of Bun.serve with ahead-of-time route compilation, so it lands within 1% of raw Bun and keeps pace with ElysiaSeveral pieces of @tekir/core (AOT compiler, body parser, query parser) are adapted from Elysia by saltyAom under MIT. Most of this performance ceiling is theirs.. No fancy claim, just a thin layer on a fast runtime.
