About
Hono is an ultrafast, lightweight web application framework built on Web Standards that runs on Cloudflare Workers, Fastly Compute, Deno, Bun, Vercel, AWS Lambda, and Node.js. It offers built-in middleware, helpers, and first-class TypeScript support, making it suitable for building web APIs, edge applications, and full-stack projects. Its RegExpRouter is benchmarked as the fastest router for Cloudflare Workers, and the core preset weighs under 14kB with zero dependencies.
Problem
Developers need a fast, lightweight, and portable web framework that works consistently across multiple JavaScript runtimes and edge platforms.
For
JavaScript and TypeScript developers building web APIs or edge applications
How it works
Hono uses a RegExpRouter that compiles routes into a single regex before dispatch, adheres strictly to Web Standard APIs, and provides middleware and helpers that are only bundled when used.
